How to Read a Cyprus IBAN
Every IBAN starts the same way: the first two letters are the country code (CY) and the next two digits are the mod-97 check digits, computed over the entire number. What follows is Cyprus's domestic account format: 3n bank, 5n branch, 16c account.
For an international transfer to Cyprus you will typically need this IBAN plus the bank's SWIFT/BIC code, which you can verify with our SWIFT Code Checker.
