ISO 20022 Data Source Schemes
1- DESCRIPTION
The ISO 20022 Data Source Scheme (DSS) is a mechanism that allows an institution or market
organization to specify and use a proprietary code list
 that is not owned nor managed by ISO 20022, and
 that replaces a standard code list (either a specific ISO 20022 managed code list or another ISO
standard code list, e.g. BICs or ISINs) in specific Message Components where the use of DSSs
has been approved.
This document describes the DSS concept and registration process and list the DSSs already defined
for use in ISO 20022 messages.
The DSS mechanism was first introduced in ISO 15022 – Securities – Scheme for messages.
The ISO 20022 DSS consists of the following parts:
 a mandatory 'data source issuer' that identifies the institution or organiztion issuing the
proprietary code list (known as the ‘data source issuer code’ in the ISO 15022 DSS).
 An optional 'data source scheme name' that identifies the code list in case a single data source
issuer issues more than one code list for the same business purpose, e.g., two code schemes
for identification of parties (known as the ‘data source issuer sub-code’ in the ISO 15022 DSS).
 the actual code value.
The below table compares the DSS concepts in ISO 15022 and ISO 20022:

2- Registration Process
The approval of an ISO 20022 DSS requires agreement at two levels:
1. The Message Definition must include the possibility to use a DSS by including the appropriate
structure in the required place. This is agreed by the SEG at the time the Message Definition is
approved (initial submission or maintenance).
2. Specific code lists must be registered for use in the specific places where it has been agreed
that a DSS can be used. This registration may be obtained at the time the Message Definition is
approved or later - sometimes much later - namely any moment after the Message Definition
has been approved.
Approval of the possibility to use DSSs in a new Message Definition
When a submitting organization is convinced of the need for a Data Source Scheme (existing or new
DSS) in a specific context, it will include the appropriate structure in the candidate ISO 20022 messages.
During the message evaluation, the assigned SEG will verify the business case to accept use of nonstandard code lists. Similarly, if the need arises later to introduce the possibility to use a DSS in an
existing message, a change request to update the structure of the Message Definition will be submitted
to the relevant SEG for approval.
Registration of (additional) DSSs for use in existing Message
Definitions
The RA maintains the list of all ISO 20022 Data Source Schemes as well as the specific Message
Components in which they can be used.
If an institution or market organization requires the use of a new proprietary code list, it will send a
request for registration of a new DSS to the RA, using the specific DSS template. The RA will validate
the request, assign a new DSS (issuer and scheme name(s)), inform the requestor and publish the new
DSS information in an updated version of this document.
In case of conflict, the final decision will be taken by the RMG.
The list of current ISO 20022 DSSs is published below and gives the following information:
- which ISO 20022 Message Components support which DSSs
- the data source issuer information: description, country of issuer
- the data source scheme name(s), if any.

3- LIST OF DATA SOURCE SCHEMES
Requests for additional Data Source Schemes or use of existing Data Source Schemes in new Message
Components must be submitted to the ISO 20022 Registration Authority using the official template for
'Request for ISO 20022 Data Source Scheme Registration' (www.iso20022.org).
In case of questions, please contact the ISO 20022 Registration Authority at iso20022ra@iso20022.org
