IBAN validator
The international bank account number (iso 13616) (Europe and 80+ countries). Validation runs entirely on the check-digit algorithm: rearrange, map letters to digits, then mod 97 must equal 1. No external registry is queried, so there is no rate limit and no per-lookup fee.

Important limitation, stated plainly
A checksum proves the number is well-formed. It does not prove the number was ever issued, nor that it belongs to the person presenting it. Any vendor claiming otherwise from a checksum alone is overselling. Use this to reject the ~90% of bad input that is simply mistyped, then use an official registry for the rest.
