# Class IBANValidator

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.validator.routines.IBANValidator

public class IBANValidator extends Object
IBAN Validator.

Checks an IBAN for:

- country code prefix
- IBAN length
- pattern (digits and/or uppercase letters)
- IBAN Checkdigits (using `IBANCheckDigit`)

The class does not perform checks on the embedded BBAN (Basic Bank Account Number). Each country has its own rules for these.

The validator includes a default set of formats derived from the IBAN registry at https://www.swift.com/standards/data-standards/iban.

This can get out of date, but the set can be adjusted by creating a validator and using the `setValidator(String, int, String)` or `setValidator(Validator)` method to add (or remove) an entry.

For example:

     IBANValidator ibv = new IBANValidator();
     ibv.setValidator("XX", 12, "XX\\d{10}")

The singleton default instance cannot be modified in this way.

  1.5.0
