Convert a ANZ bank statement to Excel
Convert a ANZ statement PDF to Excel or CSV right in your browser — date, description, amount and balance are detected automatically, with a row-by-row balance check, and your statement is never uploaded. ANZ statements use this layout: ANZ Statement of Account lists one row per transaction in the order Date, Transaction Details, Withdrawals (Debit), Deposits (Credit) and Balance — debits and credits sit in separate columns, dates print as '12 Mar 2024', with the account number and statement period shown in the header. Text-based PDFs downloaded from ANZ online banking convert most accurately.
Drop your bank statement PDFs (multiple allowed) and StatementSift detects the date/description/amount/balance columns locally and reconciles row by row. Financial data is never uploaded or sent to any external AI. Text-based PDFs (from online banking) work best.
How we read a ANZ statement
- Columns:ANZ Statement of Account lists one row per transaction in the order Date, Transaction Details, Withdrawals (Debit), Deposits (Credit) and Balance — debits and credits sit in separate columns, dates print as '12 Mar 2024', with the account number and statement period shown in the header.
- Date format:DD MMM YYYY
- Best source:Sign in to ANZ Internet Banking or the ANZ App, open Statements / eStatements, pick the period and download the official PDF statement (text-based) rather than a screenshot or a scan — scanned copies make OCR misread the debit, credit and balance columns.
Watch-outs for ANZ statements
- ANZ splits money in and out into two separate columns (withdrawals/debits and deposits/credits). The converter merges them into one signed amount so the balance check can run; double-check that a credit didn't get the wrong sign on any flagged row.
- Multi-line descriptions (a long merchant name wrapped onto two lines) are the most common cause of a shifted row — if a row doesn't reconcile, that's the first thing to check.
- Transactions that carry over a page break, and the opening/closing balance lines, are handled separately from regular rows; verify the first and last rows of each page after a multi-page statement.

ANZ text-based PDFs are in the sweet spot and convert accurately at the row level. Either way, verify key figures before use — the row-by-row balance reconciliation flags suspect rows for you.
