Submission Windows
Fedwire operates during Federal Reserve business hours. Transactions submitted outside these hours will be queued and processed at the next available opening.
| Operating Window | Hours (Eastern Time) |
|---|---|
| Business days | 9:00 PM Sunday to 6:30 PM Friday (continuous) |
| Weekends / US federal holidays | Closed |
The 6:30 PM ET cutoff is the last point for same-day settlement. Fedwire transactions are irrevocable once submitted to the network — voids must be requested before the transaction reaches the receiving bank.
