The csv file attached to the edict submissions to the TEU must be in UTF-8 format, otherwise strange characters will appear in the notified annex and this may be a reason for the BOE to return our announcement. To save the file in this format, follow these steps:

  • If using MS Windows Notepad , we must be careful to choose the UTF-8 Encoding option when saving the file with the .csv extension (Recommended option):

utf8

  • If using Excel we must save the file:
    • In “CSV (comma delimited)” format.
    • Click on the “Tools” button.
    • Choose the “Coding” tab.
    • Choose “Unicode (UTF-8)”.
