Check the length (27), that it starts with IT, and the mod-97 check digits. Our free IBAN checker does all three in one step and shows the bank when it is known.
Is Italy in SEPA?

No. The check proves the number is well formed and the check digits match. Only the bank can confirm that the account is open and whose it is.
