Italian bank code 08988

IBAN structure with this code

An Italian IBAN is IT, two check digits, one CIN letter, the five-digit ABI code, a five-digit CAB (the branch), then the twelve-character account number. The ABI code is what the Banca d'Italia registers can name a holder for; the account part is known only to the bank.

IT67 V089 8801 6000 0000 0123 456

Synthetic example: the account part is a placeholder, this IBAN belongs to nobody. It shows where the code sits inside the IBAN.
