Convert a DNB statement to…

DNB statement to Excel

For month-end review, analysis and any job that starts with 'get it into a spreadsheet'.

DNB statement to CSV

For importing into software and workflows that take a plain file.

DNB statement to OFX

For any workflow that asks for a 'bank statement file' rather than a spreadsheet.

Statements from Norway banks print dates as day/month/year, often written day.month.year — 03.04.2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with points or spaces for thousands and a comma for decimals (1.234,56) — the converter's locale-aware reader handles that layout, and then the reconciliation check proves the result: the extracted transactions must add up to the balances printed on the statement itself, or the conversion is flagged.

Trust in the output comes from the statement's own arithmetic. DNB prints balances that its transaction list must sum to; the converter repeats that sum independently on the extracted data. Agreement to the cent means the extraction matches the document. Disagreement means the conversion is flagged — the result says so plainly, with the differing rows marked.

Two habits make DNB statements easier to work with. First, convert the issued PDF rather than a portal screen print — print views paginate differently and can drop the balance lines the check needs. In a sectioned layout — deposits, then withdrawals, then fees — compare section totals first. Knowing which layout you hold tells you where to look before the marked rows even load.

In Norway, bookkeepers commonly work in Tripletex and Fiken; the Excel and CSV exports from this converter are the files those tools import, and the CSV export is laid out for direct import where the tool accepts it.

Keeping evidence with the conversion

File three things together for every {bank} month: the statement PDF, the converted file, and the reconciliation outcome. Anyone reviewing the work later — a partner, an auditor, a tax adviser — can re-perform the month from that trio without asking you anything.

Choosing a format for DNB statements

Each format above serves a different next step. Excel suits review and analysis — figures you will sort, total and annotate. CSV suits import into anything and long-term archiving. QuickBooks and Xero exports match those tools' own import layouts, so the file uploads without remapping. OFX suits desktop software that expects a structured bank file. Converting costs nothing extra per format: many people take Excel for their own review and the accounting format for the books.

How to download a statement PDF from DNB

  1. Log in the way you normally bank. Open the DNB app or website and sign in. Statement PDFs sit behind the login — there is no public download.
  2. Pick the account and the month. Statements usually live under the account menu, labelled Statements, Documents, or eStatements, depending on the bank.
  3. Download the periods you need. Pick the month (or months) you need. For catch-up bookkeeping, download each month as its own PDF.
  4. Save the PDF unchanged. Choose PDF when the bank offers several formats — it is the issued document, identical to the paper statement.
  5. Upload the PDF here. Upload the PDF above and check the reconciliation result before you download the converted file.

These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.

Tip: keep the downloaded PDFs in a folder named by account and month. A tidy folder makes batch conversion and later review almost mechanical.

Questions and answers

How do I convert a DNB statement to Excel?

Download the statement PDF from DNB online banking, upload it to the converter on this page, and download the an Excel (.xlsx) workbook. The transactions are extracted, put into the same standard columns used for every bank, and checked against the statement's balances first.

What date and number formats do DNB statements use?

Like most banks in Norway, DNB prints dates as day/month/year, often written day.month.year — 03.04.2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with points or spaces for thousands and a comma for decimals (1.234,56). Conversion normalizes dates to an unambiguous form in the output while leaving the figures themselves untouched.

What does the reconciliation check do?

Where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the converter adds up the extracted transactions and compares the result with the statement itself. If the numbers do not tie, the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked — a failed check is never shown as a success.

Do I need an account to convert a DNB statement?

No. There is no sign-up: upload the PDF, check the reconciliation result, download the file. Uploaded files and exports are deleted automatically within 15 minutes.

Which file should I upload — the PDF or a portal CSV export?

The statement PDF. It is the issued document and it carries the opening and closing balances the reconciliation check verifies against; a portal CSV has the transactions but nothing to prove them against.

Are amounts converted into another currency?

No. The converter changes layout, not currency: figures stay in kr exactly as DNB printed them.

Can I convert statements for several DNB accounts?

Yes — convert each account's statements separately so each one reconciles against its own balances, then combine the exports in your software if you need a single view.

What if DNB only offers paper statements?

Scan the statement as flat and straight as you can and upload the scan. OCR reads it, and the reconciliation check verifies the read against the printed balances; rows it cannot verify are flagged for a manual look.

Are my statement files kept?

No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.

Bank statements in. Clean books out.

Your first conversion is free — no card, no sign-up — and every result is reconciled against the statement itself before you download it.
