IBAN Structure Ukraine

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

Ukraine's IBAN has 29 characters in the format UAkk BBBB BBCC CCCC CCCC CCCC CCCCC. After the country code UA and the check digits come a 6-digit bank code (MFO) and the 19-character account number. Ukraine is not a SEPA participant. The currency is the hryvnia (UAH), not the euro. Transfers from the euro area to Ukraine therefore run over classic SWIFT — a BIC is required, and foreign-transfer fees and FX margins can apply. The 6-digit bank code matches the MFO, the traditional identifier of the account-holding Ukrainian bank.
