Invalid IBAN number (Ukr, Bank Aval)

Hello, I'm facing problem with adding new payment method (Wire Transfer to Ukrainian bank - Raifeissen Bank Aval) - after filling SWIFT CODE field (with AVALUAUK value), I'm trying to fill IBAN field, but it always shows that it's incorrect, but I doublechecked IBAN I'm using with bank, and I'm sure it's correct. It's in format UA77380805000000002600XXXXXXX 
Any ideas how to fix it?

Just checked with another browser (Firefox) - issue persists. Clearing cookies/cache doesn't fix it as well

Ok, I found where's problem coming from - right now I'm living in Poland, and on upwork I specified my current location as "Poland", but I want to get paid to ukrainian bank account (which is my home country, and I willing to pay taxes there) and for IBAN field validation regexp looks like: 

<input data-regexp="/^PL\d{26}$/" type="text" name="accountNumber" id="accountNumber" value="" data-name="IBAN Number"...>

So, that's why it doesn't allow me to add "UA...." IBAN, so, how should I solve it - change country on upwork to Ukraine, then add payment method, then switch back to Poland, or is there any better options? Because AFAIK I can't change countries on upwork so frequently

Hi Valentyn,


You should be able to add your bank account. I already sent you a PM with more information.

 

Thank you.
