How long is an IBAN from Georgia?

22 characters, written in groups of four on paper (GE67 AB34 5678 9012 3456 78 as a synthetic example).

Can I find the bank from the IBAN?

The bank identifier is the 2 characters at positions 5–6; the bank’s name and BIC are in SWIFT’s licensed directory, which the API does not resolve.

Does a valid IBAN mean the account exists?

No. The check digits and the structure say the IBAN is well formed; existence and ownership are known to the bank only, at payment time.

Georgia IBAN format

An IBAN from Georgia is 22 characters long: the country code GE, two check digits, then 2 letters (bank code), 16 digits (account number). Georgia is outside SEPA. Length and structure from the SWIFT IBAN Registry (ISO 13616), transcribed 2026-10-24; the SEPA flag from the EPC list.

Structure

22 characters in all. Registry notation of the BBAN: 2!a16!n (n digits, a upper-case letters, c alphanumerics, ! fixed length).

Position	Length	Characters	Meaning
1–2	2	letters	country code GE
3–4	2	digits	check digits (ISO 7064 mod 97-10)
5–6	2	letters	bank code
7–22	16	digits	account number

Example

GE67 AB34 5678 9012 3456 78 is a synthetic example: placeholder characters in every part, with the check digits computed so that the mod-97 test passes. It is not a real account and no bank issued it; use it to test an input field, not to pay.

SEPA

Georgia is outside the SEPA schemes: a transfer to this IBAN goes through correspondent banks, with fees on both sides and several days of delay. A payout system should warn before paying.

Check one

The API checks the characters, the country, the length (22), the mod-97 check digits and the BBAN pattern, and returns the bank identifier.
