Convert a BNP Paribas bank statement to Excel
Convert a BNP Paribas 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. BNP Paribas statements use this layout: A BNP Paribas statement (relevé de compte) uses debit-credit columns: booking Date, value date (Valeur), a Libellé description, then separate Débit and Crédit columns, with the Solde (balance) shown as opening/closing totals. Amounts use French formatting (space thousands, comma decimals). Text-based PDFs downloaded from BNP Paribas 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 BNP Paribas statement
- Columns：A BNP Paribas statement (relevé de compte) uses debit-credit columns: booking Date, value date (Valeur), a Libellé description, then separate Débit and Crédit columns, with the Solde (balance) shown as opening/closing totals. Amounts use French formatting (space thousands, comma decimals).
- Date format：DD/MM/YYYY
- Best source：Log in to BNP Paribas online banking (Mes Comptes) or the app and download the official text-based PDF from Relevés / e-documents — avoid screenshots or scans, since OCR easily confuses the Débit/Crédit columns and comma decimals.
Watch-outs for BNP Paribas statements
- BNP Paribas 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.
