IBAN Structure Azerbaijan

Last reviewed: · Source: ISO 13616 / SWIFT IBAN Registry

Azerbaijan's IBAN has 28 characters in the format AZkk BBBB CCCC CCCC CCCC CCCC CCCC. After the country code AZ and the check digits come a 4-letter bank code and the 20-character account number. Azerbaijan is not a SEPA participant. The currency is the Azerbaijani manat (AZN). Transfers from the euro area to Azerbaijan run over classic SWIFT — a BIC is required, and FX margins and longer settlement times can apply. The 4-letter bank code matches the first four characters of the account-holding bank's BIC.
