Quick Summary: Instant sub-1ms ISO 13616 MOD-97 checksum validation, BBAN decomposition, and bank routing extraction for Albania (AL) bank accounts. 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.
In Albania, the International Bank Account Number (IBAN) has a fixed length of 28 alphanumeric characters starting with the two-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code 'AL', followed by two MOD-97 check digits.
The National Basic Bank Account Number (BBAN) follows the official pattern: 8n16c. The national bank code is located at BBAN character offset [0:3]. The branch identifier is at offset [4:8].
National IBAN transfers in Albania (AL) are settled in ALL.
Validation computes the ISO 7064 Modulo-97-10 checksum by transposing the first 4 characters to the end, converting letters to numeric digits (A=10, ..., Z=35), and calculating arithmetic integer modulo 97 (must equal 1).
| Attribute | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Country Code | AL | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 |
| Total IBAN Length | 28 characters | Fixed standard length |
| BBAN Format | 8n16c | National structure (n=numeric, a=alpha, c=alphanumeric) |
| SEPA Zone | No | SEPA compliance status |
| Currency (ISO 4217) | ALL | National settlement currency |
| Bank Code Position | BBAN Offset 0 (3 chars) | National clearing code |
| Branch Code Position | BBAN Offset 4 (4 chars) | Branch identification |

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
An official IBAN in Albania (AL) is exactly 28 characters in length. Any shorter or longer value fails ISO 13616 validation.
Albania is not a SEPA participant and relies on SWIFT/BIC wire routing.
IBAN transfers for Albania (AL) settle in ALL, the national settlement currency. Cross-border SEPA transfers to Albania may still be denominated in EUR where both banks support the scheme.
The first 4 characters are moved to the end, letters are converted to numbers (A=10 to Z=35), and the resulting number is evaluated with modulo 97 arithmetic. A valid IBAN yields a remainder of exactly 1.
