A corrected and improved structure of the polymorph II of 2C3H8NO3+·C2O42−·2H2O, based on single-crystal data, is presented. The structure is refined with anisotropic displacement parameters for all non-H atoms and all H atoms are located. Due to the charged moieties, the structure is classified as a molecular salt. Intermolecular O—HO−, O—HO and N+—HO−hydrogen bonds link the components of the structure. The L-serinium cations and oxalate anions form a network of channels in [100] direction, filled with the water molecules of crystallization. The dihedral angle between the CO2 units of the oxalate dianion is 10.2 (3)°
