Why Convert AIB Statements with BankScan AI?
Need to convert your own AIB UK (Allied Irish Banks) business statement to Excel? BankScan AI prepares its DD/MM/YYYY dates and Irish banking format with separate Debit and Credit columns plus running balance for review. BankScan is for one UK sole trader or owner-operated small business that keeps GBP sole-trader records.
Understanding AIB Statement Formats
AIB UK statements use a format that differs from mainland UK banks. BankScan AI presents detected GBP and EUR rows for review, while BankScan books remain GBP-only. BankScan AI uses reviewed rules for supported AIB UK (Allied Irish Banks) layouts (PDF) and presents the extracted columns, dates and descriptions for you to verify.
Why AIB Statements Need Specialist Conversion
AIB statements use DD/MM/YYYY dates with Irish banking format with separate Debit and Credit columns plus running balance. Common parsing challenges include: GBP and EUR transactions may be intermixed on cross-border accounts, AIB Group formatting conventions from the Republic of Ireland parent occasionally appear, and older First Trust Bank-branded statements use a completely different layout.
BankScan AI applies reviewed parsing rules for AIB UK (Allied Irish Banks) layouts. Check the extracted dates, descriptions, amounts and balances against the source before using them.

AIB — Did You Know?
AIB UK operated as First Trust Bank in Northern Ireland until rebranding to AIB in 2019. Older account archives may therefore contain both First Trust and current AIB formats.
