CAMT.053 to MT940 Conversion

Convert CAMT.053 to MT940 and keep your existing processes running

Many banks deliver account statements as CAMT.053. Many ERP, finance, and treasury systems still expect MT940.

Our Python converter generates MT940 so your existing import flow keeps running without a process break.

  • Reliable conversion from CAMT.053 to MT940 (.STA)
  • Keep existing import processes without rebuilding your ERP
  • Runs locally in your infrastructure, with no cloud dependency
  • Suitable for recurring XML and ZIP input processing

A bridge for existing systems

If the bank delivers CAMT and your target system expects MT940, our converter provides a stable handoff without a process break.

Problem

The bank switches to CAMT, your system only supports MT940

Banks increasingly deliver CAMT.053 while many downstream systems still expect MT940. That creates manual workarounds, broken imports, and avoidable process friction.

  • Imports break after the switch to CAMT
  • ERP or TMS changes become urgent and expensive
  • Manual conversion replaces stable automation
  • Inconsistent booking information from different sources
  • Uncertainty around field mapping such as :61: and :86:
  • More coordination between finance and treasury
Solution

A stable bridge: CAMT.053 in, MT940 out

The software reads CAMT.053 and generates MT940 from it. That lets your existing import flow in the target system continue without a process break.

  • Converts booked entries including balances
  • Generates core MT940 fields such as :20:, :25:, :28C:, :60F:, :61:, :86:, :62F:
  • Merges multiple CAMT files in a ZIP archive into a single .STA output
  • Can run fully inside your own infrastructure
Technical summary

A clear input/output flow makes alignment easier for both business and IT teams.

Features

Features that matter for MT940 imports

Focused on reliable handoff into existing processes, without forcing a platform rebuild.

CAMT.053 Parsing

Reads CAMT.053 XML and processes the statement section.

ZIP support

Processes ZIP archives with CAMT files and generates a combined .STA output when needed.

MT940 output (.STA)

Generates MT940 with core tags such as :61: and :86: for your target system.

Batch run per directory

CLI run with input and output directories, optionally with overwrite and self-check.

Workflow

How the conversion runs in production

1
CAMT.053 arrives

The bank delivers account statements as CAMT.053, for example via EBICS.

2
Processed locally

The conversion runs locally as a script, batch process, or scheduled job.

3
Output MT940

MT940 is written to the target directory. Existing files remain untouched by default.

4
Import as usual

ERP, finance, or TMS keeps importing MT940 without a process break. Overwrite allows targeted replacement when needed.

From real use

When the conversion just needs to work in daily operations

The value of the solution shows up where existing processes need to keep running without extra manual steps or workarounds.

Operations

Quick to deploy as a local CLI tool

Our converter runs as a Python CLI with input and output directories. It processes XML and ZIP inputs and writes MT940 files with the .STA extension.

  • Fast rollout into existing processes without a platform switch
  • Robust enough for recurring file imports in day-to-day operations
  • Suitable for repeated conversion inside your own infrastructure
  • Clear, reliable MT940 output for downstream systems

Operational priorities

What business and IT teams care about in daily use

The solution is designed for repeatable runs, so daily import processes stay stable and predictable.

Local processing

Runs inside your infrastructure without dependence on external cloud services.

Repeatable runs

Suitable for regular batch processing in day-to-day operations.

Controlled overwrite

Output files are not replaced by default and can be overwritten selectively when needed.

Optional syntax check

Self-check validates MT940 output syntax before handoff.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The converter processes CAMT.053 as XML files as well as ZIP archives containing XML files. That means existing inbound flows can continue without extra steps.

Processing runs locally in your infrastructure. No cloud connection is required.

Existing output files are not overwritten by default. The overwrite option allows targeted replacement when needed.

If multiple CAMT files are included, the converter generates one combined MT940 file. That reduces manual follow-up work for bundled deliveries.

The output includes core MT940 tags such as :20:, :25:, :28C:, :60F:, :61:, :86:, and :62F:. That keeps relevant balance and transaction data available in the downstream process.

An optional self-check can be enabled. It validates the generated MT940 files syntactically before further processing.

That depends on the target system and the inbound flow. After initial alignment, integration into existing batch processes is often possible in the short term.

Helpful details are the target system, banking context, known CAMT version, and desired operating mode. That allows a fast fit assessment.
