What is Canada Bank Routing Number?

In Canada, bank codes are referred to as routing numbers. Routing numbers are eight numerical digits with a dash between the fifth and sixth digit for paper financial documents encoded with magnetic ink character recognition and nine numerical digits without dashes for electronic funds transfers.

Payments Canada, formerly known as the Canadian Payments Association, regulates routing numbers to allow easy identification of the branch location and financial institution associated with an account.

For example, For MICR-encoded documents, use AAAAA-BBB. The number is given in one of the following formats, where AAAAA represents the transit number and BBB represents the financial institution number: For electronic funds transfers, use 0BBBAAAAA. When formatting a routing number for electronic payments, a leading zero is used.
