Brokonto - when you commute between Sweden and Denmark

Since the deadline has passed to migrate to MitID in the netbank, we recommend you to book an appointment at Borgerservice and get the MitID there.

We here in SEB can’t assist you.

If you urgently need a transfer from DK to SE, you can write to becbrokonto@seb.dk - and the team will assist you with a transfer.

This form "KYC – Know you customer documentation for account in Denmark" must be filled, signed and returned to SEB.

How do I log in to my NetBank?

 You have to use NemID and a NemID code card to login.

You log in to your NetBank via this link.

If you do not already have NemID you can order it at Nemid.nu.

What is NemID?

NemID is a digital signature like the Swedish Bank-ID. You use NemID to log in to your NetBank, public websites such as skat.dk, borger.dk and several other internet services. NemID consists of a user ID, password and a code card. The code card is a folded piece of paper with a number of printed one-time codes.

To login with NemID you use your user ID, password and a code from your code card. When you log in a 4 digit code will appear on your screen and you enter the 6 digit personal code from your card shown beside the 4 digit code. Code cards are automatically ordered when there are around 10/15 unused codes left.

I forgot my password - what do I do?

You can request a new password at Nemid.nu. You will need the number of your code card to make the request.

I need a new key card – what do I do?

To order a new code card you go to Nemid.nu. You will need your NemID user ID and password to make the request.

What are my options regarding the monthly transfer?

You can choose to transfer a fixed amount each month.

You can choose to leave a fixed amount on your Danish account every month. We will transfer the excess balance. This solution is useful if the balance of your account varies or if you expect public payments such as tax refunds or holiday allowances.

If the transfer date is a weekend or a Danish national holiday, the transfer will be made the previous day if there is enough money in the account.

Is it possible for me to change the monthly transfer?

If you want to change the fixed transfer amount, please send us a message via Net Bank. If we receive your message no later than 2pm, the transfer will be amended on the same day. Otherwise we will change it the following day.

Can I put my monthly transfer on hold?

Yes, you can pause the transfer for up to 3 months. The balance on the account for the period must be at least DKK 1.000. Please note that quarterly fees will continue to be deducted from the account. Therefore we recommend closing your account if you don’t plan to use Brokonto again.

What happens in case of an overdraft on my account?

If your transactions exceed the balance on your account, you violate the agreement you have entered into with SEB. If the overdraft exceeds DK 500 your card will be automatically blocked. You must pay a fee of DK 300 and repay the overdraft in order to reopen the account. In addition the balance of the account has to be positive to reopen it. Once you have covered the debt on your account, please contact Brokonto customer service via Netbank.

Please note that if your card is blocked twice, we cannot reopen it and we will no longer offer Visa/Dankort to your Brokonto.

To avoid overdraft

Please keep in mind that payments with your Visa/Dankort in Sweden are handled as foreign transactions. This means that they are not deducted from your Danish account until two days later. Please consider signing op for notifications by SMS or e-mail when your account reaches a certain balance.

Is it possible for me to transfer money from my Danish to my Swedish SEB account?

Yes. You can make a foreign transfer via NetBank. Please see the user guide. 

I have made a transfer from my Danish to my Swedish account. When is it completed?

It depends on the type of payment you have chosen to use. When you make a transfer between your SEB accounts in the two countries, you can choose between three types of payment types:

• Economy payment (Økonomibetaling) (3 Banking Days) = 100 DKK (If you make the transfer Monday, the money will be available on Thursday)
• Standard payment (Normalbetaling)(2 Banking Days) = 200 DKK (If you make the transfer Monday, the money will be available Wednesday).
• Express payment (Ekspresbetaling) (1 Banking Day) = 300 DKK (If you make the transfer Monday, the money will be available on Tuesday).

When transferring money please note, that a Banking Day is a regular weekday (Monday-Friday) with the exception of public holidays. For example, if you make an economy payment on Friday, the transfer will be completed on Wednesday.
