Step-by-Step Guide

How to use den IBAN-Rechner step by step: 1. IBAN generieren: Geben Sie Ihre 8-stellige Bankleitzahl (BLZ) und Ihre Kontonummer ein. Der Rechner fuellt die Kontonummer auf 10 Stellen auf (mit fuehrenden Nullen), setzt den Laendercode DE davor und calculates die 2-stellige Pruefziffer. 2. IBAN pruefen: Geben Sie eine bestehende IBAN ein. Der Rechner validiert die Pruefziffer nach dem MOD-97-Verfahren (ISO 13616). 3. Aufbau der deutschen IBAN verstehen: DE (Laendercode) + 2 Pruefziffern + 8-stellige BLZ + 10-stellige Kontonummer = 22 Stellen. 4. Pruefziffernberechnung: BBAN (BLZ + Kontonummer) + DE00 bilden, Buchstaben in Zahlen umwandeln (D=13, E=14), MOD 97 calculate, Pruefziffer = 98 - Rest. 5. BIC ist fuer SEPA-Inlandszahlungen seit 2016 nicht mehr erforderlich. Beispiel: BLZ 37040044 (Commerzbank Koeln), Kontonummer 532013000. IBAN: DE + Pruefziffer + 37040044 + 0532013000. Berechnung: 3704004405320130001314 + 00. MOD 97: Rest = 11. Pruefziffer: 98 - 11 = 87. IBAN: DE87 3704 0044 0532 0130 00.
