Frequently asked questions
Can a purpose code be changed after credit?
Banks can usually correct it on a written request backed by documents, though the process and timelines vary by bank.
Why does the purpose code matter?
It classifies the remittance for RBI reporting. A wrong code can make an export look like a personal transfer and complicate realisation and refunds.
Can I edit the wording?
Yes. Download the Word file and change anything you like — the layout stays intact. Or print on your own letterhead by choosing "Leave space" under Date, place & style.
