The National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA) and Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the U.S Department of the Treasury have introduced a standard entry class code for International ACH Transactions (IAT). When you make payments to a vendor or refund a payment to a customer who is outside the United States, you must use this code in the transaction to denote the origin of the payment.
