To determine whether any action is required on your part, you should first check whether you currently use Bg Max files for reconciliation of incoming payments.
-
If you do not currently use Bg Max files (for example if you use ELIN for
manual reconciliation), you do not need to do anything.
You can check which file type you receive today in your business system settings or by contacting your system provider.
-
If you currently use Bg Max files to reconcile incoming payments to your
business’s Bankgiro number, follow the steps below.
-
Contact your system provider to:
- ensure that your system supports Danske Bank’s camt.053 and/or camt.054 format, also known as ISO 20022 XML
-
determine which of these formats you should use instead of the Bg Max file
Camt.053 - Account statement containing all account transactions, including opening and closing balances.
Camt.054 - Account statement without balances, where the content can be selected from options such as all bank transactions or incoming payments. -
Order a new file format
- On the basis of your system provider’s recommendation, order a camt.053 or camt.054 file according to the instructions below as soon as possible and no later than 8 September 2026.
Our file format documentation is available in the Reconciliation section here: ISO 20022 XML
