A validation request is an automated check of an IBAN number which returns an indication of whether a provided number could be an actual IBAN. It checks for the following conditions:

• Is the country indicator valid?
• If the country indicator is valid:
  • Is the bank part of a correct length for the country?
  • Is the branch part of a correct length for the country?
  • Is the account part of a correct length for the country?
  • Is the IBAN checksum correct?
  • Where possible: is the country-specific checksum related to the bank/branch/account combination  correct?

A lookup request is a retrieval of up-to-date information about an IBAN number or SWIFT/BIC code. A lookup returns the following details:

• For an IBAN lookup – the SWIFT/BIC code related to the IBAN, along with branch details.
• For a SWIFT/BIC code – branch details.
