The IBAN (International Bank Account Number) in Greenland has 18 characters. It starts with the country code GL, followed by two check digits. The BBAN part (Basic Bank Account Number) then holds the bank code (4 digits, positions 5 to 8 of the IBAN) and the account number (9 digits, positions 9 to 17).
