How to Read a Italy IBAN
Every IBAN starts the same way: the first two letters are the country code (IT) and the next two digits are the mod-97 check digits, computed over the entire number. What follows is Italy's domestic account format: 1a check, 5n bank (ABI), 5n branch (CAB), 12c account.
For an international transfer to Italy you will typically need this IBAN plus the bank's SWIFT/BIC code, which you can verify with our SWIFT Code Checker.
