Two levels of IBAN generation are supported. Level 1 generation is performed by passing a correctly formatted BBAN and ISO 3166 country code to the library. Level 2 generation is performed by passing country specific account and bank identification information to the library through a standardize calling convention.
When performing Level 2 generation the library constructs a properly formatted BBAN from the supplied account and bank identification components. Each component is verified for correct length and data type for all countries. National account number checksum validation is performed for: Belgium, Estonia, Finland, France, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Slovak Republic, and Spain.
This library does not provide bank, branch, sort, BIC, or SWIFT codes.
