An IBAN comprises the following

The IBAN begins with the country code – DE for Germany, for example. This is followed by two check digits that serve to detect errors when inputting an IBAN, preventing erroneous transfers. With a German IBAN, these are followed by the bank sorting code and the account number. If an account number has fewer than ten figures, then typically zeros are added before the actual number.
