How to send money to a TBC Bank account in Batumi from abroad: card number or IBAN?
Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 5 days ago
TL;DR
For an international transfer to a TBC Bank account, you will usually need the recipient’s IBAN rather than only the 16-digit card number. Not every payment service supports transfers to Georgian cards by card number.
What the community said
To send money to a Georgian card, you can use IBAN transfers from Russian banks such as VTB, T-Bank, and Alfa-Bank. Cryptocurrency or various transfer aggregator services are also options.

If a service does not accept a TBC card number, make a bank transfer using the recipient’s account details and Georgian IBAN. Having a physical card does not necessarily mean it can receive an international transfer by card number.

Before sending money, check whether the provider supports direct transfers to Georgian cards. You may need to select a bank-account transfer to Georgia instead of a card-to-card option.

To obtain TBC Bank account details, use the bank’s app or visit a branch in Batumi. The app interface is in Georgian and English, so Russian-speaking customers may need translation assistance.
