Convert a Halifax bank statement to Excel
Convert a Halifax statement PDF to Excel or CSV in your browser. StatementSift detects date, description, amount and balance columns, then checks row-by-row balance continuity before export. Halifax statements use this layout: Date, Payment type and Details, Money out, Money in and Balance — withdrawals and deposits in separate columns.
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.

Watch-outs for Halifax statements
Halifax separates money out and money in into debit and credit columns. If a row is flagged, first check whether the sign was assigned correctly.
Wrapped merchant descriptions can push the next line out of alignment; check long descriptions when the balance proof fails.
Opening balance, closing balance and page-break continuation rows are not ordinary transactions, so review the first and last rows on multi-page statements.
