IBAN checker
Check that an Azerbaijani IBAN is valid: length, check digits, bank code and account number. Enter the BIC (SWIFT) code too, and its match with the IBAN is checked as well.
Structure of an Azerbaijani IBAN
An IBAN is an international account number: the country code, check digits, bank code and the account number at the bank in one line.
- AZCountry codecharacters 1-2
- 48Check digits (mod-97)characters 3-4
- CTREBank codecharacters 5-8
- 0000 0000 0000 0001 4001Account numbercharacters 9-28
The check runs in your browser using the mod-97 algorithm of the ISO 13616 (IBAN) standard; nothing is sent anywhere.

Frequently asked questions
How many characters does an Azerbaijani IBAN have?
28: the country code AZ, 2 check digits, the 4-letter bank code and a 20-character account number. For example, AZ48 CTRE 0000 0000 0000 0001 4001.
If the check passes, does the account definitely exist?
No. The mod-97 check only shows that the IBAN is written without errors: it catches almost all accidental typos. Only the bank can confirm whether the account is open and who owns it.
How should the BIC (SWIFT) code match the IBAN?
Letters 5-6 of the BIC are the country code and must equal the first two letters of the IBAN (AZ for Azerbaijan). The first 4 letters of the BIC usually equal the bank code in the IBAN.
