Opens a structured payment investigation through Swift Case Management, replacing recurring MT195/199-style queries with a message that carries case, original-payment, request, and routing data in labelled elements.
DIRECTION: Sent through the Case Orchestrator by the institution opening or forwarding an investigation to the institution expected to answer.
Version + profile: camt.110 is a message-family identifier, not a complete version. The numeric .001.xx definition and field rules depend on the scheme, service, usage guideline, and implementation version named in each context; sample namespaces show only the illustrated version.

IMPLEMENTATION RESOURCES
Start with the exact message version, then apply the scheme or network profile that governs your implementation.
An XSD checks XML structure. A usage guideline adds profile rules, conditional fields, code restrictions, and business controls. XSD-valid does not mean scheme-compliant.

Full guidelines require MyStandards access. Public guidance states that after 14 November 2026 fully unstructured addresses are removed for in-scope CBPR+ traffic, with explicit message exceptions including admi.024, camt.025, camt.052, camt.053, camt.054 and camt.060.

Full field-level specifications live in the Swift Knowledge Centre User Handbook behind a swift.com login. Coexistence for in-scope FI-to-FI payment instructions ended on 22 November 2025, but treatment differs by MT: some instructions are NAKed and selected messages can enter temporary, chargeable contingency conversion. Reporting, initiation, investigations and correspondence follow separate roadmaps.

COMMON ERRORS
Opening a case without the original UETR and transaction references.Consequence: The assignee must search by weak data and response time rises.Avoid it: Populate every available original reference directly from the stored payment message.
Using the investigation request for a payment cancellation.Consequence: The case enters the wrong process and recovery deadlines may be missed.Avoid it: Use camt.056/camt.029 for payment cancellation and camt.110/camt.111 for investigations.
USAGE CONTEXTS
Swift Case Managementcamt.110 can only be exchanged through the Case Orchestrator; it is not a generic bilateral replacement channel.
Migration milestonesSwift states mandatory receive capability begins in November 2026 with translation support, followed by ISO-only investigation exchange in November 2027.
