Understanding IBAN Country Codes

Every IBAN starts with a two-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code that identifies the country where the account is held. For example, DE for Germany, FR for France, GB for United Kingdom, and IT for Italy. Each country has its own IBAN format with specific length requirements (ranging from 15 to 34 characters) and structure. For instance, German IBANs are always 22 characters long (DE + 2 check digits + 18-character BBAN), while French IBANs are 27 characters (FR + 2 check digits + 23-character BBAN). Understanding these country-specific formats is essential for implementing IBAN validation, generating test data, or processing international payments. SEPA countries use standardized formats for euro transfers, making cross-border payments within Europe faster and cheaper.
