PDF bank statement to MT940

Your accounting software reads MT940, but the bank only gave you a PDF? Convert it here – with the opening and closing balance your software needs.

  • Every bank, any language
  • Balance check: opening + transactions = closing
  • Your statement never leaves your computer

When you need this

  • A new client brings a year of PDF statements and your bank link only goes back a few months.
  • The bank no longer offers MT940 downloads for older periods.
  • You moved bank or the account has been closed, and only PDFs remain.

What the MT940 file contains

A standard SWIFT MT940 statement: account (IBAN and currency), opening balance (:60F:), one :61: line per transaction with booking date, value date and amount, the description in the :86: field with the counterparty IBAN and name where available, and the closing balance (:62F:). We use the SWIFT character set and line lengths, so strict importers accept the file.

Balances must match

Accounting software rejects an MT940 file when the opening balance does not follow on from the previous import. BankToCSV takes the balances from the statement and checks that all transactions add up before you download. MT940 export is part of Business.

How it works

From PDF statement to a clean file in three steps

  1. Drop the PDF

    Download the statement as PDF from your online banking and drop it on the page. Nothing is uploaded.

  2. Check the result

    Every transaction appears in a table with date, description and amount. We check the opening and closing balance for you.

  3. Download

    Choose Excel, CSV, MT940, CAMT.053 or OFX and import the file into your spreadsheet or accounting software.

Your bank statements stay on your device

Bank statements show your income, your spending and your account number. That is why BankToCSV reads them inside your browser. The PDF is not uploaded – not to us and not to anyone else. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page has loaded.

We do not use tracking cookies or analytics.
