iso_13616

This library provides ISO 13616 International Bank Account Number (IBAN) structure parsing, checksum validation, and normalization based on the public ISO 13616 and Swift IBAN registry documentation. It requires Unicode support from the backend Prolog compiler.

The current public implementation includes a checked-in snapshot of the public SWIFT IBAN registry for all currently registered IBAN countries. Validation therefore checks:

  • the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code
  • the country-specific total IBAN length
  • the country-specific BBAN structure pattern
  • the standard MOD-97 checksum The checked-in registry facts use a derived Prolog segment representation for BBAN patterns, e.g. [a-4, n-6, n-8] instead of the original SWIFT text syntax 4!a6!n8!n. This keeps the published structure information while making validation code simpler and more direct.

    The public API remains structural. The library validates the published national IBAN formats but does not attempt to ship any bank directory or account existence data beyond the public registry pattern definitions.
