The BIC code(SWIFT code ) of Catholic Syrian Bank is CSYBIN55XXX
Here I am providing you all the info I have about BIC code

A “BIC(Business Identifier Codes) code” can be seen by many different names, like “SWIFT code” (most common), “SWIFT ID”, “SWIFT-BIC”, “SWIFT address”, “BEI” (that comes from “Business Entity Identifier”), or even “ISO 9362”, which is the standard format that has been approved by the ISO organization. The acronym SWIFT stands for the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication.

You can easily check the swift code of any bank lets take any example,
lets take a 11-character swift code for example:
AAAABBCCDDD

It can be broken down to these sections:
AAAA – BB – CC - DDD

Section 1 (the first 4-characters “AAAA”): This code is used to identify the institution’s global presence (all branches and all divisions around the world).
Section 2 (5th and 6th characters “BB”): This two-letter code represents the country of this particular institution’s branch and follows the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 standard for representing country codes

Section 3 (7th and 8th characters “CC”): These characters represent a location code (e.g. “FF” is the code for “Frankfurt”, “KK” is the code for Copenhagen, etc.) and also the second character (8th in the B.I.C.)

sometimes carries this information:
• If it is equal to “0”, then it typically is a BIC assigned for testing purposes (as opposed to a BIC used on the live network).
• If it is equal to “1”, then it denotes a passive participant in the SWIFT network.

• If it is equal to "2", then it typically denotes a “reverse billing” BIC, meaning that the recipient of the message has to pay for the message.
Section 4 (9th to 11th characters “DDD”): These final three characters form a “branch code” that refers to the particular branch of the institution. If this section is omitted, then we have an 8-character swift code that is assumed to refer to the HEAD OFFICE of the institution. Also, a typical naming convention is that in the case we are referring to the main offices of an institution, this branch code is “XXX”.
Therefore swift code MIDLGB22XXX (or simply MIDLGB) is for HSBC BANK PLC.

Hope this information will be helpful to you but in case if you want to know more than just ask again
