Furthermore, banks can obtain foreign national IDs, even when they are not physically located in that foreign country. Threrfore, provision is made in the BICPlusIBAN to include National IDs for countries other than the country of residence. For example, Lloyds Bank London can have a BLZ number.

An “Other national ID” field will contain DE for Germany, and the appropriate BLZ number. If available for the corresponding National ID, the Special Code is appended after national ID.
