IBAN format · GE

Georgia IBAN format: 22 characters.

Georgia IBANs have 22 characters: the country code GE, two check digits and an 18-character BBAN, the national account number, laid out as 2!a16!n.

The BBAN, segment by segment

The registry writes the BBAN in SWIFT notation: n is a digit, a an upper-case letter, c a letter or digit, and the ! means a fixed length. 2!a16!n reads:

Georgia IBAN example

GE29 NB00 0000 0101 9049 17 is the sample the SWIFT IBAN Registry publishes for Georgia: a well-formed IBAN for showing the format, not a real account. Written electronically it has no spaces (GE29NB0000000101904917); on paper it is printed in groups of four.

Its check digits, worked through with ISO 7064 mod 97-10:

  1. Move the country code and check digits to the end

    NB0000000101904917GE29
  2. Replace each letter with two digits (A = 10 … Z = 35)

    N = 23, B = 11, G = 16, E = 14

    23110000000101904917161429
  3. Divide that number by 97 and keep the remainder

    Remainder 1. A valid IBAN always leaves 1, so the check digits are right.

  4. Where the check digits come from

    Put 00 in their place (GE00…), repeat steps 1–3: remainder 69. The check digits are 98 − 69 = 29.

SEPA

Georgia is not in the Single Euro Payments Area, so SEPA credit transfers and direct debits don’t reach GE IBANs.

What the format can and can’t tell you

  • Valid means the structure and check digits are right — not that the account exists or can receive payments.
  • National check digits inside the BBAN (e.g. the French RIB key, or the Spanish, Belgian and Italian CIN digits) are not verified.
  • Bank and branch codes are read from their positions; they are not looked up in a bank directory.
