I invoice to the rest of the world as well; can I use IBAN & BIC for other countries?

NatWest - Commercial Banking - IBAN - Frequently Asked Quest...
Yes you can. The difference is that Banks in the rest of the world are unlikely to check the validity of the IBAN mathematically. You can quote the IBAN as your account number and the BIC as your bank details in the same way that you present the information for EU & EEA. The information is sufficient for the payment to reach your account at NatWest. No, IBAN is better and essential for cross-border intra EU & EEA payments. Both should not be used.
