ING InsideBusiness Compliance: ISO-8859-1 & Address Limits

ING Netherlands requires strict adherence to the **ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1)** character set. Special characters or symbols outside this range can cause file rejection during upload to InsideBusiness.

Our converter automatically sanitizes your data, normalizing accented characters and removing unsupported symbols to ensure 100% compatibility.

Technical Detail: Address Lines

ING enforces a limit of **2 address lines** in the XML structure. Our tool intelligently formats your Excel data to fit these constraints without losing critical information.
