IBAN Structure Mongolia

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

Mongolia's IBAN has 20 characters in the format MNkk BBBB BBBB BBBB BBBB. After the country code MN and the check digits come a 4-digit bank code and the 12-digit account number. Mongolia is not a SEPA participant. The currency is the tögrög (MNT). Transfers from the euro area to Mongolia run over classic SWIFT — a BIC is required, and FX margins and longer settlement times can apply. Mongolia introduced the IBAN comparatively late; today Mongolian banks issue their customers an IBAN.
