Upload statements and export MT940
Drop one PDF or multiple PDFs here
Works with digital PDFs, scans, and photos from banks worldwide - retail, business, and fintech. Multiple PDFs are automatically processed as one batch and exported as a ZIP with individual CSV files.
When MT940 is useful
PDF statements are visual documents, while bank formats need structured statement fields.
KontoCSV converts PDF bank statements into MT940 for practical accounting and banking workflows.
Use a bank format when your accounting, ERP, or banking system accepts structured statement files; choose CSV for spreadsheet review.
MT940 format and usage
MT940 is a long-standing SWIFT format for structured statement data.
Recommendation: validate dates, amount signs, and balances before using the export.
CSV and Excel suit spreadsheet work; CAMT.053 v8 is the XML alternative for ISO 20022-style workflows.
- Input: native PDF statements and readable scans.
- Output: structured MT940 file.
- Suitable for recurring monthly handoffs to accounting, ERP, or banking systems.
- PDFs with multiple accounts, different account holders, or separate account sections can also be prepared structurally.

FAQ
When should I use MT940?
Use MT940 when the receiving system accepts it and a bank statement format is a better fit than CSV. Review the generated file before using it.
Scans supported?
Yes, if date, amount, description, and balance are readable. Digital PDFs from online banking are usually the most stable source.
Need spreadsheet edits?
Usually no. Review the generated file first and change columns only if the target system requires custom mapping. Convert bank statements to CSV.
Multiple accounts in one PDF?
Yes. KontoCSV can prepare PDFs with multiple accounts for the same account holder, different account holders, or separate account sections.
Difference vs CAMT.053?
MT940 is text-based; CAMT.053 is XML-based.
Reusable monthly?
Yes. Use the same target format each month and validate date, amount, sign, and balance before import.
