Once you have completed your onboarding, your DRs will be converted into book-entry form. Conversion into book-entry form ('dematerialisation') of securities is the process by which securities, such as depository receipts for shares, are registered with a stock exchange to make them tradable. It means the securities are officially entered into the trading system of the stock exchange, which makes them available for trade by investors.
As from the date of listing on Euronext Amsterdam, securities will be converted into book-entry form every two weeks, in even weeks. This means that from then on, your DRs will always be made tradable in even weeks. If you complete your onboarding immediately after one of the book-entry times, your DRs will be converted in the following even week.
