IBAN Structure Djibouti

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

Djibouti's IBAN has 27 characters in the format DJkk BBBB BBBB BBBB BBBB BBBB BBB. After the country code DJ and the check digits come a 5-digit bank code, a 5-digit branch code, the 11-digit account number and two national check digits. Djibouti is not a SEPA participant. The currency is the Djiboutian franc (DJF), pegged to the US dollar at a fixed rate. Transfers from the euro area to Djibouti run over classic SWIFT — a BIC is required, and FX margins and longer settlement times can apply. The IBAN layout follows the French RIB scheme.
