Convert SEB Bank Statements to Excel (XLSX)

To convert an SEB bank statement to Excel, upload your PDF document to BankStmtConverter. The system automatically reads the layout, extracts transaction dates, booking texts, debits, credits, and running balances, and outputs a structured .xlsx spreadsheet. You get an editable workbook ready for financial analysis, reconciliation, or Swedish VAT (Moms) reporting within seconds.

How to convert your SEB statement to Excel

1. Download your account statement (kontoutdrag) as a PDF from your SEB online banking portal or scan your physical paper statement.
2. Upload the PDF to the converter on this page.
3. Wait a few seconds while the parser extracts the transaction rows and validates the balance math.
4. Download your formatted Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) file and open it in Excel, Google Sheets, or LibreOffice Calc.

Data extracted from SEB bank statements

SEB (Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken) account statements follow structured layouts that contain both transaction-level data and period summaries. When converted to Excel, the table preserves individual data points across separate columns:

• Bokföringsdag / Transaction Date: Converted to standard YYYY-MM-DD or DD/MM/YYYY date formatting recognized natively by Excel.
• Valutadag / Value Date: Preserved when present for accurate cash flow analysis.
• Text / Transaction Description: The full narration string, including recipient details, OCR reference numbers (referensnummer), Swish sender/receiver details, and card transaction references.
• Belopp (Debet / Kredit): Transaction amounts parsed into separate numeric columns for money out and money in, stored as genuine numbers rather than text strings.
• Saldo / Running Balance: The calculated account balance after each line item, formatted in SEK.

Working with your SEB data in Microsoft Excel

Exporting to Excel gives you full control over financial analysis that locked PDF files do not allow. In Sweden, accounting software like Fortnox, Visma eEkonomi, and Bokio require clean records, and Excel serves as the working canvas before final journal entries are posted.

Reconciling with formulas

Once your SEB statement is in Excel, you can run mathematical checks across the entire accounting period. Verify your net movement using standard spreadsheet formulas:

=SUM(E2:E150) - SUM(D2:D150)

You can also confirm that the closing balance matches the opening balance plus net movement by comparing the final row's calculated balance against the printed balance from SEB. If you need clean tabular data without formulas for automated accounting imports, you can also generate a SEB statement to CSV file.

Pivot tables and expense categorisation

An Excel export allows you to build pivot tables to group expenses by supplier, payee, or internal project code. You can filter standard Swedish banking entries such as Bankgiro payments, PlusGiro transfers, card terminals, and recurring autogiro debits to track company expenditure categories across quarters.

Example output: SEB transaction extract

Below is a sample of how standard Swedish Krona (SEK) transactions from an SEB business account appear once converted into an Excel spreadsheet:

Does it work with scanned or multi-page SEB statements?

Yes. If you have older paper statements or archived PDF scans from SEB, the integrated optical character recognition (OCR) engine identifies the character glyphs and reconstructs the tabular grid. Multi-page PDFs are compiled into a continuous, single Excel sheet without repeating page headers or broken balances in the middle of your data set. The converter checks opening balances, line items, and closing balances to ensure no transactions are missed during conversion.

Data privacy and security

Your financial data remains confidential. Uploaded SEB statements are processed over encrypted connections and automatically deleted from our servers immediately after the conversion is finished. Your transaction details are never stored permanently, shared with third parties, or used to train machine learning models.
