Banking hours and banking days are the hours banks are open in the sending country, receiving country, or both. These vary from bank to bank. Banking days typically do not include weekends.

Regional holidays can affect banking hours and days and may delay your transaction's delivery.

How to speed up your transaction
Send your US domestic wires in the morning on banking days. This will lead to faster settlement and also speed up the delivery of your money in Mexico.

Important: your bank will not process wires sent after hours or on non-banking days until the next banking day. Contact your bank to learn more about their wire processing schedule.
