Parts of a Ukraine IBAN and their positions
Positions	Part	In the example
1–2	Country code	UA
3–4	Check digits	21
5–10	Bank code	322313
11–29	Account	0000026007233566001

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. 6!n19!c reads:

Ukraine IBAN example

UA21 3223 1300 0002 6007 2335 6600 1 is the sample the SWIFT IBAN Registry publishes for Ukraine: a well-formed IBAN for showing the format, not a real account. Written electronically it has no spaces (UA213223130000026007233566001); on paper it is printed in groups of four.

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

Move the country code and check digits to the end
3223130000026007233566001UA21
Replace each letter with two digits (A = 10 … Z = 35)
U = 30, A = 10
3223130000026007233566001301021
Divide that number by 97 and keep the remainder
Remainder 1. A valid IBAN always leaves 1, so the check digits are right.
Where the check digits come from
Put 00 in their place (UA00…), repeat steps 1–3: remainder 77. The check digits are 98 − 77 = 21.

SEPA

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