SPECIFICATION OVERVIEWNOVEMBER 2026 MANDATE

ISO 20022: Digital Tetris for Money Movement

Traditional payment messages treat addresses like a single unstructured line on a sticky note. ISO 20022 replaces this with discrete, machine-readable XML/JSON elements that every bank in the chain reads identically.

Legacy Unstructured

123 Main St Sydney 2000 Australia

Requires interpretation, prone to false positives in AML screening.

ISO 20022 Structured

<StrtNm>Main Street</StrtNm>
<BldgNb>123</BldgNb>
<TwnNm>Sydney</TwnNm>
<PstCd>2000</PstCd>
<Ctry>AU</Ctry>

Why it matters: The RBA and Australian Payments Network require full ISO 20022 structured address compliance for cross-border AUD by Nov 2026. Data hygiene directly powers automated compliance screening and prevents silent payment drops.
