How the IBAN is built in Albania

The IBAN (International Bank Account Number) in Albania has 28 characters. It starts with the country code AL, followed by two check digits. The BBAN part (Basic Bank Account Number) then holds the bank code (3 digits, positions 5 to 7 of the IBAN) and the account number (16 characters, positions 13 to 28). Between the bank code and the account number there are 5 further characters (for example a branch code or check character).

Validation for Albania

For Albania we fully validate the IBAN (length, format, Mod-97 check digits) and extract the bank code and account number. BIC lookup is not available for this country yet, but IBAN validation works reliably.
