Georgia IBAN validator
How the IBAN format works
- Format
- GE + 2 check digits + 2-letter bank code + 16-digit account number (22 chars)
- Example
- GE29NB0000000101904917
Things to watch for
- 22 characters total
- Checks structure and checksum only, not that the account exists
^GE[0-9]{2}[A-Z]{2}[0-9]{16}$A Georgia IBAN is 22 characters, and its bank code is unusually short: just 2 letters, compared with the 3- or 4-character codes most other countries in this set use. The full layout is “GE”, two check digits, a 2-letter bank code, and a 16-digit account-number block, all numeric after the bank code. Georgia is also the only Caucasus-region country represented among these eleven, sitting structurally closer to a compact European IBAN than to its longer Gulf or Levant counterparts. Anyone sending a transfer into Georgia, paying a Georgian business, or filling in a payment form that asks for an IBAN instead of a local account number needs all 22 characters correct.
How this validator works
Validation starts by confirming the “GE” prefix, then checks that the bank-code block is exactly 2 letters and the account block is exactly 16 digits, before running the mod-97 checksum (ISO 7064) used to generate valid Georgian IBANs — all client-side, no data leaves your browser, no account needed. Because the bank code is so short, it’s easy to skim past when reading the number quickly; the checksum step doesn’t care how you read it, only whether the full 22-character string is internally consistent.
What a pass doesn’t tell you
A pass here means the IBAN is correctly formed and internally consistent — not that the account exists, is currently open, or belongs to whoever you believe it does. This tool performs no lookup against National Bank of Georgia records and makes no contact with any bank or clearing system. If a Georgian IBAN fails, check the 16-digit account block first, since it’s by far the longest single segment in the number.
Scope: Georgia IBAN structure and mod-97 checksum validation only — not payment processing or proof an account is active. Use this to catch a typo before a transfer fails; your bank confirms the account itself.

IBAN FAQ
Why does a Georgian IBAN use only 2 letters for the bank code?
Most countries covered here use 3 or 4 characters for their bank identifier, but Georgia's National Bank assigns a compact 2-letter code — e.g. NB in GE29NB0000000101904917 — followed directly by a 16-digit account number, for 22 characters total.
How does a Georgian IBAN compare in length to a UK or German one?
Identical at 22 characters, though the internal split differs: Georgia uses a short 2-letter bank code plus a 16-digit account block, versus the UK's 4-letter code plus separate 6-digit sort code and 8-digit account number.
Does this tool confirm the account is open at a Georgian bank?
No. It checks only structure and the mod-97 checksum, entirely in your browser. Confirming an account is active or belongs to a specific holder requires the bank or the National Bank of Georgia.
