Produce a SAF-T file for Skattestyrelsen (Denmark)

Last updated 14 Oct 2026

SAF-T is the standard file the tax authority asks for when it wants your sales
records. In Denmark that is Skattestyrelsen. You request one for a period and the system
builds it.

Request a file

Open Shop → Skattestyrelsen. The page is only in the menu for a Danish shop.
Files you have already requested are listed with their period, status and a download.

The Skattestyrelsen page with New Request outlined

Select New Request.

Give it a period

The New Request form

Start Date and End Date set what the file covers. Use exactly the period you
were asked for. A file covering more than was requested discloses more than you
need to. One request covers at most 60 days; for a longer period, request it in parts.

Email (optional) is required in practice: the form will not submit without it.
It starts with your own address filled in; the finished file is sent there, and you can also
collect it from this page.

Select Submit. You are taken back to the list, where the request now shows. When
the file is built, download it with XML.

Request it with time to spare. A file covering a long period is not instant, and
a deadline is a poor moment to discover that.
