Works with digital PDFs, scans, and photos from banks worldwide - retail, business, and fintech. Upload files up to 2 GB; multiple PDFs are processed as a batch ZIP.

Problem and solution

Banks export statements as PDFs, while DATEV requires structured import data. KontoCSV converts that PDF structure into a DATEV-compatible import workflow.

Guide: DATEV CSV import guide

Which format DATEV expects

DATEV imports use a strict DATEV-ASCII/EXTF-like structure with fixed columns. KontoCSV builds this output directly from your PDF.

EXTF_Buchungsstapel;700;21; Amount;DebitCredit;Currency;Account;ContraAccount;BookingDate;Text; 1190.00;S;EUR;1200;8400;05032026;Invoice 2051;

Useful for firms and tax offices: multiple PDFs can be prepared for batch imports.

Step by step DATEV import

  1. Upload your PDF bank statement to KontoCSV.
  2. Choose the DATEV export profile and download the file.
  3. Import into DATEV Unternehmen Online or DATEV accounting.
