Extract text from SKV files
To convert your SKV file to another format, you need Microsoft Excel or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Financial Data Export" file type, you need software like Microsoft Excel or a similar tool.
The .SKV file extension is most frequently generated by Skatteverket (the Swedish Tax Agency) to export tax account transactions. These files are essentially text-based data logs where fields are separated by semicolons rather than commas, designed to handle European data formats where commas often serve as decimal points. A significant user limitation arises when double-clicking these files: operating systems rarely have a default application assigned, and attempting to open them directly in Microsoft Excel often results in formatting errors where all data is crushed into a single column due to the delimiter mismatch.
To make this financial data usable, the most practical workflow is converting the .SKV file to standard XLSX or CSV formats, which ensures columns align correctly for calculation and sorting. For official archiving or sharing tax history with accountants who do not need to edit the raw figures, converting to PDF provides a stable, uneditable view. Rarely, you may encounter an .SKV file that is a legacy XLANG Schedule Drawing associated with older versions of Microsoft BizTalk Server, a proprietary diagram format that is largely obsolete and incompatible with modern viewers.
Convert.Guru analyzes your SKV file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our SKV converter.
