A Bank State Branch (BSB) number is a numerical code that identifies an individual branch of a financial institution within Australia. This six digit number plus your account number is what we use to identify your account.
The BSB number is made up of three parts:
AAB-CCC
The first two numbers (AA) specify the financial institution.
The third number (B) indicates the state where the branch is located.
The last three numbers (CCC) are the unique identifier for a branch.
