How to Read a Bulgaria IBAN

Every IBAN starts the same way: the first two letters are the country code (BG) and the next two digits are the mod-97 check digits, computed over the entire number. What follows is Bulgaria's domestic account format: 4a bank, 4n branch, 10c account.

For an international transfer to Bulgaria you will typically need this IBAN plus the bank's SWIFT/BIC code, which you can verify with our SWIFT Code Checker.
