Quick Summary: Convert national Basic Bank Account Numbers (BBAN) and local clearing codes (Sort Codes, BLZ, RIB) into fully compliant international IBANs with calculated MOD-97 check digits. Validates strictly against ISO 13616 / ISO 7064 MOD-97-10 with sub-5ms in-memory response times.
Specification & Structural Breakdown
Technical Summary: Validates strictly against ISO 13616 / ISO 7064 MOD-97-10. Payloads are parsed in memory and return clean, typed JSON in milliseconds with zero data logged.
Transforms domestic bank account formats into international ISO 13616 standard representations.
Computes the two-digit ISO 7064 MOD-97 check digits automatically by appending the 2-letter country code + "00", converting to integer representation, and calculating 98 - (N mod 97).
Validates domestic BBAN structure against national clearing house standards before generating the international identifier.
| Country | Domestic Components | IBAN Construction Assembly |

Rules:
- Send the request with a 2-second timeout.
- Parse the standard envelope { success, data, meta: { latency_ms, version } }.
- On failure, read { success: false, error, code } and branch on the code.
- Do not retry 4xx responses; surface the error code to the caller.
- Treat invalid-but-well-formed payloads as HTTP 200 with data.valid === false.Frequently Asked Questions & Technical Notes
A BBAN (Basic Bank Account Number) is the domestic account number used within a specific country. An IBAN (International Bank Account Number) prefixes the BBAN with the country code and two MOD-97 check digits to ensure global uniqueness and error-free routing.
