What is the UAE IBAN format?
A UAE IBAN has 23 characters: the letters AE, two check digits, a three-digit bank code and a 16-digit account number. It is usually printed in groups of four, for example AE07 0331 2345 6789 0123 456.
Who needs to store IBANs?
Finance teams store the IBANs of suppliers, landlords and staff so that transfers go to the right account. IBANs appear on invoices, bank letters and salary documents, and a single wrong character can send a payment to the wrong place.
How can you check the shape of a UAE IBAN?
After removing spaces, a UAE IBAN is AE followed by 21 digits.
^AE\d{21}$IBANs also carry a checksum defined in ISO 13616. The number is valid only if the checksum, calculated with modulo 97, equals 1. A matching shape with a failing checksum usually means a typing error.
What does an example look like?
AE07 0331 2345 6789 0123 456 is the example layout published for UAE IBANs. Use it to see the format and never as a real account.
How does InstantDrive read an IBAN?
InstantDrive runs its deterministic pattern engine on extracted text and accepts a matching IBAN without calling a language model. Vision AI is used only as a fallback when text recognition confidence is below 90 percent.
What does InstantDrive not do with IBANs?
InstantDrive does not confirm that an account exists, does not confirm the account holder name and does not move money. It reads the number from your documents and stores it with the file.
