Basically the day the wire leaves, - it will go thru whatever is the "international branch" of the sending bank. When it leaves there, it sure ain't gonna come back and charges are not gonna be accepted by the recipient bank.
The liability is with the sending bank - and they don't (or should not) send out wires from accounts without some decent documentary support.
Despite that, there is no hurry in passing over goods. Nothing like waiting a week
