Why are not all countries supported?

Why IBAN-Test supports countries with reliable validation rules and bank data.

IBAN-Test supports countries where reliable rules and data are available for IBAN structure, check digits and bank data validation.

A basic IBAN format check is possible for many countries. Deeper bank data validation with bank name, city or BIC only makes sense where reliable bank directories are available. We prefer fewer countries with clearer validation quality over broader coverage with uncertain results.
