Ireland banks
How Ireland statements are laid out
Irish statements are in euro but, unlike much of the eurozone, use a full stop as the decimal separator and commas for thousands. Dates are day-first, commonly written as '05 Mar 2024' or 05/03/2024, and debits and credits usually appear in separate columns with a running balance. Accounts are identified by IBAN and BIC, and SEPA credit transfers and direct debits are labelled in the transaction details.
| On the statement | In your export |

| Debit | Debit (and negative Amount) |
| Credit | Credit (and positive Amount) |
| Payments - out | Debit (and negative Amount) |
| Payments - in | Credit (and positive Amount) |
| Balance | Balance |

Frequently asked questions
Which Ireland banks does the converter support?
It reads the transaction table directly, so it works with digital PDF statements from most banks in Ireland, including AIB, Bank of Ireland and PTSB. Unusual layouts can be corrected in the preview before export.
Does it understand DD/MM/YYYY dates and €1,234.56 amounts?
Yes. The converter detects the date order and decimal separator from the statement itself. Exports default to DD/MM/YYYY on this page, and you can switch to any other format before downloading.
Can I import the result into Xero and Sage?
Yes. Export CSV or OFX, both of which are accepted by most accounting packages used in Ireland, or Excel if you want to review and edit the data first.
Are my statements uploaded anywhere?
No. Conversion runs entirely in your web browser. The PDF and any password you enter stay on your device and are discarded when you close the page.
