BOV Malta: posted statements or proof of a payment?

Updated · 3 min read

The desktop apps export date, description, and amount as CSV. Open CSV in Excel to save an XLSX workbook. Statement support varies: verify the result against your own PDF.

Request the account record that you actually need

An account statement covers a statement period; proof of payment concerns a particular transaction. Before visiting BOV, note which account and period are relevant, whether you need an additional copy, or whether a single payment is the outstanding issue. These are preparation prompts, rather than a list of identity documents prescribed by the bank.

For a posted statement, section 2.13 directs customers to inform their BOV branch or send instructions through Internet Banking. The terms say paper statements carry a charge for digital-channel subscribers, and additional statements or multiple copies can also incur tariff charges. Ask BOV to confirm the requested record, its availability, delivery and applicable fee before placing the order. A mailed-copy request does not establish an immediate PDF download. BOV general terms.

Keep transaction proof separate from an extra statement

If only one payment needs evidence, ask at the branch about transaction details and proof of payment. BOV's terms distinguish this branch-requested evidence, sent by mail without a charge, from additional account statements. That distinction does not make every request for historical account records free. Check the current tariff and account fee documents for the statement service you request.

Use the electronic record when a posted copy is unnecessary

BOV's current Internet Banking page confirms electronic statement access and downloading. The general terms explain that digital-channel users receive a Mailbox notification when a statement is available. Check the issued record before ordering another copy; the request routes above are useful when a posted statement or specific transaction evidence is needed, rather than as a replacement for every electronic record.

For BOV, choose the record first: a statement by post, additional copies, or branch-requested evidence of a payment. Use the record planner to record your chosen route and the outstanding document period. If you already have a PDF (Portable Document Format) to prepare for a spreadsheet, the CSV (Comma-Separated Values) guide covers that separate task.
