What is an IBAN?
IBAN stands for International Bank Account Number. Since February 2014, the IBAN has replaced the 9-digit account number. In the Netherlands, the IBAN is structured as follows:
- The country code NL
- 2-digit control number
- 4 letters that identify the bank
- 10 digits, which consist of the current account number supplemented with zeros
An example of a Dutch IBAN is NL73 INGB 123 456 78 00.
