Bank details
IBAN
An IBAN is optional for the United Kingdom. It is 22 characters and is checked against the ISO 7064 MOD-97 algorithm, which catches a mistyped or transposed digit before the details reach your finance system.Currency
Every account also records its currency. The form opens on GBP, the currency of the United Kingdom, and the supplier changes it for an account held in another currency.Tax and company registrations
After a registration is saved, Coverbase checks it against Companies House and HMRC in the background. That check never blocks the supplier: it annotates the record once it completes, and a reviewer can retry it.
Country rules
- Postal codes are checked against the national format. A postal code that does not match produces a warning, not a rejection.
