IBAN Structure Moldova

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

Moldova's IBAN has 24 characters in the format MDkk BBCC CCCC CCCC CCCC CCCC. After the country code MD and the check digits come a 2-character bank code and the 18-character account number. Moldova is not an EU member; SEPA availability depends on participating banks and the payment route. The currency is the Moldovan leu (MDL), 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.

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 Moldova?
Remove spaces and count 24 characters. The first two characters are MD; the remaining positions follow MDkk BBCC CCCC CCCC CCCC CCCC. A different length is formally invalid for this country format.
What do the check digits in a Moldova 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.
