Frequently asked questions
What is the IBAN format for Spain?
A Spain IBAN is 24 characters long. It starts with the country code "ES", followed by 2 check digits and the BBAN — 4-digit bank code + 4-digit branch + 2 check digits + 10-digit account. Example structure: ES91 2100 0418 4502 0005 1332 (a sample, not a real account).
How long is a Spain IBAN?
Exactly 24 characters, including the "ES" country code and the 2 check digits. This length is fixed by the ISO 13616 registry and is the same for every Spain bank.
What is the VAT number format for Spain?
Spain VAT numbers use the prefix "ES": ES + 9 characters (NIF: letter/digit + 7 digits + letter/digit). The VAT number is separate from the IBAN — one identifies the business for tax, the other identifies the bank account.
