Frequently asked questions

  • 15 characters: NO, two check digits, then the bank register number, account number and check digit. Printed in groups of four, it looks like NO93 8601 1117 947.

  • The first four are the bank’s register number, the next six the account and the last a modulus 11 check digit. A Norwegian IBAN is NO, two check digits and the same 11 digits, so 8601.11.17947 becomes NO93 8601 1117 947.

  • Yes. Norway is in the European Economic Area, so it is in SEPA: euro payments to a Norwegian IBAN can go by SEPA credit transfer. SEPA covers euro payments only, so a payment in Norwegian krone goes outside it.

  • With the ISO 7064 mod 97-10 algorithm. The bank register number, account number and check digit and the country code NO are turned into digits, and the two check digits are chosen so the whole number leaves a remainder of 1 when divided by 97. The calculator does this for you and rejects any input that cannot make a valid NO IBAN.

  • Yes. The calculator and the checker run entirely in your browser: the details you enter are never sent to a server, stored or shared. There is no sign-up and no fee.

  • Yes. The calculator covers 41 countries and the checker all 89 in the SWIFT IBAN registry. Pick a different country in the form above, or open its page from the list below.
