MT103 and MT760 are international financial transaction code numbers. The code, MT103 SWIFT message is the most commonly used.
What is the difference between tan number and swift bic ?
An MT103 is a SWIFT message sent to make a transfer of funds. It is commonly known as a 'wire transfer' because the payment is made electronically (over a wire). There is no 'conditional' to an MT103. It will happen and is, by definition, unconditional.
A SWIFT MESSAGE TYPE 103 IS A INTERBANK MESSAGE USED BETWEEN TWO BANKS TO TRANSMIT THE VALUE OF A BOND ENGAGING BOTH BANKS

I don't think an MT301 exists. An MT300 is an FX Confirmation and an MT103 is a confirmation for making a payment.
71F seems to reflect "Sender's charges" on an MT103, being a SWIFT Transfer Payment
for further credit - instruction to a receiving bank to pay the funds to secondary beneficiary
The difference between swift and wire transfer is that swift sends information from one bank or other financial institution to another. Swift sends the payment orders, but not the finances. With a wire transfer funds are transferred from one person to another.
MT103 is customer money transfer and more predominantly being used in banking field under swift modem. However field 71 is attached with charges.
A MT103 is a SWIFT message for Customer Transfer sent by the FInancial institution initiating the transfer(the Debit leg) to the Financial Instution of the benificary(credit leg). It is an unconditional transfer ie when a Financial Instution gets a MT103 to credit a customer account it had to credit the customer account.
