I admit to knowing almost nothing about the US banking system, but is it really true that one can't make an electronic transfer using an IBAN (International Bank Account Number)?

I live in Austria and just paid a number of invoices, through online banking, to bank account holders in France, Czechia, Slovenia and the UK. All I needed was their IBAN.

Of course you can make an electronic transfer, as long as you can manage to keep a bank account open at a US bank. But don't let them find out you are living overseas or they will close it.
