Acme DBS Singapore Receiving Party Purpose Codes

outgoingPurposeCode on Acme DBS Singapore Payments (API) and Acme DBS Singapore Payments (H2H) accepts a country-specific purpose code used for purpose code reporting for the receiving party. It applies to TT only, and is mandatory when the payment currency or beneficiary country falls into one of the corridors below — otherwise it is optional.

Country-specific purpose codes

For the corridors listed under MEPS and TT - SWIFT ISO20022 Payment data changes, DBS may require a country-specific purpose code. Source: DBS Receiving Party Purpose Code (RPPC) list.

• The code value is not validated by Acme or by DBS as the sending bank — Acme validates the format only (TT only, max 10 characters). DBS validates the value only for payments into Malaysia; for every other corridor validation is subject to the beneficiary bank.
• The beneficiary country (the "paying into" location) takes precedence over the currency when a payment matches more than one corridor. For example, an MYR payment to a beneficiary in the UAE uses the UAE purpose code list below, not Malaysia's.
