Bank Windhoek is a bank based in Windhoek, Namibia. Its account statements are issued as PDFs through online and mobile banking. Upload the statement PDF below and download a CSV file — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
The CSV export is the universal version of the Bank Windhoek statement: one transaction per line in a plain-text file with Date, Description, Amount, Debit, Credit and Balance columns — the format every spreadsheet, importer and script can read without conversion.
The main use is moving figures between systems that do not share a native format. Every conversion is checked against the statement itself: where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the extracted transactions must add up to them, or the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked. A statement whose layout the reader cannot parse is reported honestly — never passed off as converted.
Trust in the output comes from the statement's own arithmetic. Bank Windhoek prints balances that its transaction list must sum to; the converter repeats that sum independently on the extracted data. A conversion only reports as reconciled when both tests agree to the cent — and when they do, the figures have been proven against the bank's own document, not merely read from it.
Two habits make Bank Windhoek statements easier to work with. First, convert the issued PDF rather than a portal screen print — print views paginate differently and can drop the balance lines the check needs. Second, glance at the statement's own subtotals before converting: section totals for deposits, withdrawals and fees are free checkpoints that tell you where a flagged difference is likely to live.
In Namibia, bookkeepers commonly work in Sage and Xero; the Excel and CSV exports from this converter are the files those tools import, and the Xero export is laid out for direct import where the tool accepts it.
Download all twelve periods first and convert them as one batch, then work through the reconciliation results month by month in order. Fix flagged months before importing anything: it is far easier to resolve a difference against twelve tidy statements than inside a year of mixed postings.
Open the CSV once in a spreadsheet before importing it anywhere, and check that dates and amounts landed in single columns. Plain-text files occasionally get re-interpreted by spreadsheet defaults — a thirty-second look now is cheaper than unpicking a misaligned import later.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: a statement that covers a partial period (account opened or closed mid-month) still converts and reconciles; its balances simply anchor a shorter chain.
Download the statement PDF from Bank Windhoek online banking, upload it to the converter on this page, and download the a CSV file. The transactions are extracted, put into the same standard columns used for every bank, and checked against the statement's balances first.
Bank Windhoek statements generally print dates as the order printed on the statement itself and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself. The converter reads the figures as printed and normalizes the output columns the same way for every bank.
Where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the converter adds up the extracted transactions and compares the result with the statement itself. If the numbers do not tie, the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked — a failed check is never shown as a success.
The conversion is flagged, and the rows whose running balance disagrees with the statement are marked with the expected and printed figures. Nothing is silently adjusted — you see exactly where the statement and the extraction part company.
Yes. Scans and photo-based PDFs are read with OCR and marked as OCR-extracted. The reconciliation check applies identically; on a poor scan it is the check that tells you whether the read can be trusted.
No. There is no sign-up: upload the PDF, check the reconciliation result, download the file. Uploaded files and exports are deleted automatically within 15 minutes.
The statement PDF. It is the issued document and it carries the opening and closing balances the reconciliation check verifies against; a portal CSV has the transactions but nothing to prove them against.
No. The converter changes layout, not currency: figures stay in N$ exactly as Bank Windhoek printed them.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
