Country details

This table shows the basic account format for each country and the checking levels available. You can perform account and BIC validation for all countries.

To validate data, you need to collect the required bank details, call Bank Wizard, check for certain conditions and then retrieve the data.

the account data required is determined by the country and checking level
the data you can retrieve is determined by the data available for the country
the conditions which can be returned are determined by the checking level, account details format and the data available for the country.

For most countries, you use and retrieve a subset of the standard strings and conditions. However for some countries, there are specific conditions (numbered 64 and above). For the United Kingdom, there is also some specific data; Account Categorisation and Faster Payments data.

This table includes links to the conditions returned when validating account details.

When validating the IBAN, the same conditions are returned for all countries, click the IBAN column heading to show these conditions and click the link in the IBAN column to display the format of the IBAN.

When validating BICs the same conditions are returned for all countries, see Validating BICs.

* - Bank Wizard does not include branch level information for these countries. The Branch level check is only performed against the bank code. Any address and other data returned is for the bank. When performing an account level check, Bank Wizard checks the format of the branch code, and, where relevant, makes sure the full account details pass any modulus checks that should be applied. The supplied branch code is also used when forming the IBAN.
