Use this list to find information about countries on the IBAN Registry. The registry is managed by The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT). IBANs are International Bank Account Numbers, which identify your personal bank account information for international money transfers.

An IBAN consists of a two-letter country code, two check digits and a Basic Bank Account Number (BBAN). A BBAN includes information about the domestic bank and account number. The IBAN print format adds one space after every four characters whereas the electronic format contains no spaces.

Many countries use the International Bank Account Number (IBAN) as a standardized format for how bank account information is presented when sending an international money transfer. The IBAN examples and formats found on this site are based on the SWIFT IBAN Registry.

IBAN, which stands for International Bank Account Number, is a numeric system that banks use to make money transfers abroad. This helps ensure that the money transfers will arrive to the right account, no matter where they're sent to.

An IBAN is important when you're sending and receiving money internationally because it prevents the funds from ending up in the wrong account by assigning a code for each individual account.

You can use our IBAN calculator to find your IBAN if you have your bank account.

Tap the "IBAN Country List" button above to see our full list of IBAN format codes.

No, they are not the same. The difference between IBAN and SWIFT is their use. While an IBAN is used to identify a bank account anywhere in the world, a SWIFT code is used to identify a bank inside their global network. However, they are similar in that their goal is to facilitate money transfers internationally.

No, banks in the United States do not use IBAN codes. To receive money transfers in the U.S., you need a BIC number (normally a SWIFT code) and a routing number of the bank connected to your account.

For international money transfers, U.S. banks typically use ABA routing numbers and SWIFT codes instead of IBAN. Though ABA routing numbers, specifically for the ACH network (also known as ACH numbers), are typically used for domestic transfers, some U.S. banks use them for international transfers too.

No, you don't need an IBAN to receive money internationally. If you're in the U.S. and want to receive a money transfer, you can use a SWIFT code or an ABA number (in case your bank uses the ACH network for international transfers).

If you're in the U.S. and want to send money to another country, you can use a SWIFT code and an account number, or an IBAN.

Do I need an IBAN to receive money from abroad?

If you're in the U.S. and want to receive a money transfer, you can use a SWIFT code and an account number, or an ABA number if your bank uses the ACH network for international transfers. In any case, the most common option for receiving money is with a SWIFT code.

The countries that don't use IBAN include the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, China, and Japan. This means you can't use an IBAN to send money to these countries or receive money if you live in one of these countries. However, you can still send money to these countries with Ria.
