1.3: July 5th, 2015

• Update to version 58 of the IBAN registry
  • Sets SEPA flag for San Marino
  • Adds length validation for Saint Lucia
• Adds ability to extract Bank Identifier and Branch Identifier from an IBAN (issue #5), if available. You can do so using the static methods in IBANFields (returns JDK8 Optionals) and IBANFieldsCompat (returns nulls). There are three countries where I had to interpret the spec in some way:
  • Finland (FI) – The spec mentions both "Not in use" and "Position 1-3 indicate the bank or banking group." I have taken "bank or banking group" to be more or less synonymous with Bank Identifier and return it as such.
  • Slovenia (SI) – The five digits following the checksum encode the financial institution and sub-encode the branch identifier if applicable, depending on the type of financial institution. The library returns all five digits as the bank identifier and never returns a branch identifier.
  • Republic of Kosovo (XK) – The four digits following the checksum encode the Bank ID, and the last two of these four sub-encode the branch ID. The library returns all four digits as the bank identifier. For example: if the IBAN has "1234" in these positions, then the bank identifier is returned as "1234" and the branch identifier as "34".
