Fake French IBAN generator
Generate test IBANs for France with valid check digits and a correct national check. Each number follows the official 27-character structure but belongs to no real account.
Bulk generation
Up to 1,000 IBANs for the selected country, exported as text, CSV, JSON or XML.
French IBAN structure
A French IBAN has 27 characters: the country code FR, two check digits, then the BBAN, which is made up of the following: 5-digit bank code (code banque), 5-digit branch code (code guichet), 11-character account number and the 2-digit RIB key (clé RIB).
| Position | Length | Content | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–2 | 2 letters | ■ Country code | FR |
| 3–4 | 2 digits | ■ IBAN check digits | 76 |
| 5–9 | 5 digits | ■ Bank code | 01055 |
| 10–14 | 5 digits | ■ Branch code | 37597 |
| 15–25 | 11 digits | ■ Account number | 01051647916 |
| 26–27 | 2 digits | ■ National check | 74 |
Good to know
The RIB key is a national checksum calculated from the bank code, branch code and account number with a modulo 97 formula. This generator computes it, so the IBANs pass both the IBAN check and the French RIB check. Monaco uses exactly the same format.

Frequently asked questions
France: are these real IBANs?
No. The bank and account codes are random. The IBAN passes format and check-digit validation, but no bank or account holder is behind it, and a transfer would be rejected.
France: how many characters does an IBAN have?
Always 27: FR, two check digits and a 23-character BBAN. Any other length is invalid.
France: do the IBANs pass national checks?
Yes. On top of the IBAN check digits, the generator computes the national check, so the numbers pass both.
