Tunisia IBAN
24 characters: the country code, two check digits, then the BBAN cut as below.
Anatomy of the official example
TN5910006035183598478831
- Country code
- Check digits
- Bank code
- Branch code
- Account number
- National check or other
The example comes from the ISO 13616 registry; it belongs to nobody. Positions count from the first character of the IBAN.
| ISO code | TN |
|---|---|
| Length | 24 characters |
| Check digits | positions 3 to 4, ISO 7064 mod 97-10 |
| Bank code | positions 5 to 6 · 2!n |
| Branch code | positions 7 to 9 · 3!n |
| Account number | positions 10 to 22 · 13!n |
| Official example | TN59 1000 6035 1835 9847 8831 |
| SEPA area | outside the SEPA area |
| Verification of Payee | no duty to date |
| Bank-code register | IBANforge composite map, assembled from BIC directories (not a national register) |
SWIFT notation: n = digits, a = upper-case letters, c = alphanumeric characters; the exclamation mark fixes the exact length.
What the API checks on a Tunisia IBAN
- The length, the charset of every field and the mod-97 check digits.
- The bank code against our composite map assembled from BIC directories: a BIC and a bank name when they are listed, without the weight of a national register.
- The country is outside SEPA: a SEPA transfer will not reach this account.
