From the exchange's own contract specification document listed 7 September 2026. Contract months are the next three of the March, June, September and December cycle. German deliverable debt requires a minimum issue volume of four billion euro. The clearing house sets the deliverable bonds and the conversion factors, published separately.

The Schatz, Bobl, Bund and Buxl all have a face value of 100,000 euro, deliver physically on the tenth of the quarterly month and stop trading at 12:30. Only the notional coupon and the deliverable maturity band differ.
