Local banking essentials

What to check before opening an account in Abidjan

Regulation

Côte d'Ivoire belongs to the UEMOA/WAEMU zone: banks are licensed by the regional banking commission (Commission Bancaire de l'UMOA) on BCEAO's authority, and e-money issuers must be BCEAO-accredited. Confirm BCEAO accreditation before relying on a payment provider.

Local account details

Côte d'Ivoire uses the UEMOA IBAN: 28 characters starting CI (CI + 2 check digits + 5-digit bank code + up to 23-digit account); domestic account numbers are bank-specific with a national bank code prefix.

Local currency: XOF (West African CFA franc)

Payments and transfers

The UEMOA zone clears through BCEAO-run systems: SICA-UEMOA is the automated clearing house for retail payments and the STAR-UEMOA RTGS settles high-value and interbank positions; mobile money (Orange Money, MTN, Moov, Wave) is the dominant everyday rail.
