IBAN Structure Georgia

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

Georgia's IBAN has 22 characters in the format GEkk BBCC CCCC CCCC CCCC CC. After the country code GE and the check digits come a 2-letter bank code and the 16-digit account number. Georgia is neither an EU member nor a SEPA participant. The currency is the Georgian lari (GEL), not the euro. For international payments, routing details, fees and timing depend on the banks, currency and route; check them in advance with your bank. The IBAN is established in Georgian payments; exact requirements depend on the bank.

Structural fields are based on the official SWIFT IBAN Registry. The editorial method and validation boundary are documented on our German editorial page (German).

Frequently asked questions

How do I check the length of an IBAN from Georgia?
Remove spaces and count 22 characters. The first two characters are GE; the remaining positions follow GEkk BBCC CCCC CCCC CCCC CC. A different length is formally invalid for this country format.
What do the check digits in a Georgia IBAN mean?
The two check digits are calculated from the complete IBAN using ISO 7064 MOD-97. They help detect format and transcription errors. A passing checksum does not confirm that an account exists or identify its account holder.
What should I do when an IBAN is formally invalid?
Check the country code, character count, letters and digits, and the check digits. Compare the entry with your bank records or ask the bank for the correct IBAN. This checker validates structure and checksum; it does not verify account ownership or payment approval.
