Questions

How many characters does a Azerbaijan IBAN have?

28 characters: the country code AZ, two check digits, and a 24-character national account number (BBAN).

Is Azerbaijan in SEPA?

No, Azerbaijan is not in SEPA; transfers use international payment rails.

Does a valid checksum mean the account exists?

No. The mod-97 checksum catches typos; it does not confirm the account or its holder. In the Netherlands, your bank's name check (Verificatie van Betalingsontvanger) matches the holder.
