Character Set

Based on chapter 2.1 “NextGenPSD2 Access to Account Interoperability Framework - Implementation Guidelines V1.3.6”.

The character set is UTF 8 encoded. This specification is only using the basic data elements string, boolean, ISODateTime, ISODate, UUID and integer and ISO based code lists (with a byte length of 32 bytes).

Max35Text, Max70Text, Max140Text resp. Max512Text are defining strings with a maximum length of 35, 70, 140 resp. 512 characters.

Banks and insurances will accept for strings at least the following character set:

a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
/ - ? : ( ) . , ' +
Space

Banks and insurances may accept further character sets for text fields like names, addresses, text. Corresponding information will be contained in the company's API documentation. Banks and insurances might convert certain special characters of these further character sets, before e.g. forwarding submitted data.
