About Denmark IBANs

A Denmark IBAN starts with the country code DK, followed by 2 check digits and the national account number (BBAN), for a total of 18 characters. ValidateFin verifies the mod-97 checksum (ISO 13616), the length and the format - entirely in your browser, no data sent to any server.

  • The first 4 digits form the registreringsnummer (registration number) identifying the bank and branch, followed by a 10-digit account number.
  • Danish domestic transfers use the 4-digit reg. number plus the account number — both are embedded directly in the DK IBAN.
  • Denmark is a SEPA country; a DK IBAN works for euro SEPA payments, while domestic accounts are in Danish krone (DKK).
