flatex Depot export: what actually works in 2026
No comprehensive CSV export — but a route that works reliably. Here it is.
Last updated: 14 August 2026 · By The Acutic Research Team
flatex (flatexDEGIRO) offers no comprehensive CSV export for depot transactions or holdings — neither in the web platform nor in flatex next. The route that actually works: the Wertpapierabrechnung PDFs from the Dokumentenarchiv (Postbox). Every order generates one, and those documents are exactly what portfolio tools — Acutic included — read directly. This guide walks the Dokumentenarchiv route step by step and documents which fields of a confirmation an import actually uses.
What flatex exports — and what it does not
This table saves the searching. Four kinds of data with four different answers — and only one of them leads to importable depot data:
| Data | Format | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Account and depot transactions | On-screen view (with filters) | flatex classic: "Konto & Depot"; flatex next: "Depot > Historie" — no comprehensive file export |
| Depot holdings (positions) | No export | No integrated export function and no official interface |
| Wertpapierabrechnung (trade confirmations) | PDF (Dokumentenarchiv) | One document per order — the route that works for tools |
| Dividendenabrechnung (dividend statements) | PDF (Dokumentenarchiv) | Distributions; not required for a positions import |
Sources: the flatex FAQ "Wo finde ich meine Konto- und Depotumsätze?" (paths for flatex next and classic); finantio.de (no comprehensive list or table export in either the app or the web version); depotstudent.de on the limited export options; the Parqet flatex blog post on the PDF route via the "Post" section and the Dokumentenarchiv. All retrieved August 2026.
Step by step: downloading confirmations from the Dokumentenarchiv
- Log in to the web platform — at flatex.de on the desktop. flatex next shows the documents too (via the Postfach), but downloading several files is more practical in the browser.
- Open the Dokumentenarchiv — in the "Post" section. Everything flatex generates lands here: cash-account statements, trade and dividend confirmations, tax documents.
- Filter — by document type and period; "Individueller Zeitraum" (custom period) reaches back to the account opening. Important: the view displays at most around 100 documents per query — for a long history, narrow the period in stages.
- Download the PDFs — one file per confirmation. The archive opens documents one at a time in a PDF viewer; there is no batch export, so save them document by document.
Transactions also exist as on-screen views: flatex classic under "Konto & Depot > Kontoumsätze oder Depotumsätze", flatex next in the dashboard under "Depot > Historie". Those views are made for looking things up — a complete file export of the history is not on offer there.
What a Wertpapierabrechnung contains
The Wertpapierabrechnung is the execution document German brokers are required to issue — which is why its content is reliable and stable across years. The table shows the fields of a flatex confirmation and marks which of them the Acutic import actually reads. This mapping is documented straight from the parser — not guessed from samples:
| Abrechnung field | Content | Read by the import? |
|---|---|---|
| Wertpapierbezeichnung / Gattung | instrument name | Yes — used for ticker resolution |
| ISIN | 12-character identifier | Yes — primary matching key |
| WKN | 6-character German identifier | Yes — supplementary |
| Stück / Nominale | number of units | Yes — becomes the position size |
| Ausführungskurs / Kurs | price per unit | Yes — becomes the cost basis |
| Ausführungstag / Schlusstag / Valuta | execution date | Yes — becomes the opening date |
| Currency (EUR, USD, GBP, CHF) | from the price line | Yes — defaults to EUR |
| Ausmachender Betrag | total order amount | Yes — used as a plausibility check |
| Fee and tax lines | charges, KESt | No — not needed for positions |
Importing into Acutic
- Open Import in the Acutic dashboard and drag the PDF files into the dropzone — several at once is fine.
- Recognition is automatic: flatex documents are identified by their letterhead ("flatex" or "flatexDEGIRO Bank AG"), no format selection needed. If one document carries several executions, each execution is processed individually.
- The preview shows every recognised position with unit count, cost basis and date. ISIN and instrument name are resolved to the matching ticker automatically. Disposal confirmations appear as non-importable rows with a stated reason — the import builds holdings from acquisition confirmations.
- Confirm — done. The import page also offers a sample flatex confirmation to try before uploading real documents.
Limits and pitfalls
- No comprehensive CSV export: what can be saved from individual views is limited and covers neither the full transaction history nor the holdings. For flatex, Acutic reads the PDF confirmations exclusively.
- The 100-document ceiling: the Dokumentenarchiv displays only around 100 documents per query. For a long history, set the custom period in stages so no confirmation falls out of the display.
- One document per order: a long depot history means many PDFs — and the archive opens them one at a time in its viewer. The multi-file upload on the import side balances that out.
- Text layer required: the originals from the Dokumentenarchiv contain selectable text and work directly. Scanned or re-saved image copies lose that text layer and cannot be parsed.
Frequently asked questions
Can I export my flatex Depot as a CSV file?
flatex offers no comprehensive CSV export for transactions or holdings — neither in the web platform nor in flatex next. The transaction views are for looking things up. For securities, flatex issues Wertpapierabrechnung PDFs in the Dokumentenarchiv — that is the route portfolio tools read.
Where do I find the Wertpapierabrechnung documents at flatex?
In the Dokumentenarchiv (Postbox), reached via the "Post" section of the web platform; in flatex next via the Postfach. Cash-account statements, trade and dividend confirmations and tax documents sit there as PDFs. The period filter reveals older documents.
How far back does the Dokumentenarchiv go?
Via "Individueller Zeitraum" (custom period) back to the account opening. The view shows only around 100 documents per query, though — for a long history, narrow the period in stages so nothing falls out of the display.
Which flatex documents work for an import?
The Wertpapierabrechnung PDFs: a Kauf (acquisition) confirmation opens a position on import. Disposal confirmations and dividend statements contain no new positions and are shown accordingly or simply not needed.
