AstroBank IBAN Format & BIC Code

AstroBank's BIC is PIRBCY2N. Its bank code is 008, the code an IBAN at AstroBank carries in positions 5 to 7. Its IBANs are 28 characters long. AstroBank no longer operates independently, so do not use these details for a new payment without confirming them with the beneficiary.

Merged. AstroBank is now part of Alpha Bank Cyprus. Alpha Bank Cyprus completed the acquisition of AstroBank's banking operations at the end of October 2025. Its own guidance says former AstroBank customers keep using the AstroBank platforms and cards separately for now, so an existing account number may still work; confirm the current details with the beneficiary before sending a payment.
