Based in Wellington, New Zealand, Rabobank New Zealand provides statements to its customers as PDF documents in online banking. Upload the statement PDF below and download an OFX-formatted export of the statement's transactions — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
OFX exists so statements can move between financial software without retyping. The export writes the Rabobank New Zealand transactions into that format, preserving dates, amounts and descriptions in their tagged fields.
The main use is moving an account between finance applications without retyping. Statements from New Zealand banks print dates as day/month/year — 03/04/2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with a comma for thousands and a point for decimals (1,234.56) — the converter's locale-aware reader handles that layout, and then the reconciliation check proves the result: the extracted transactions must add up to the balances printed on the statement itself, or the conversion is flagged.
Every Rabobank New Zealand conversion is audited by the document it came from. The extracted transactions are totalled against the printed opening and closing balances and checked row by row against the running balance column where one is printed. Agreement to the cent means the extraction matches the document. Disagreement means the conversion is flagged — the result says so plainly, with the differing rows marked.
Two habits make Rabobank New Zealand 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. The closing zone carries the balances and any fees or interest summaries; it is the closing zone the reconciliation check answers to, and the first place to look when a conversion is flagged.
In New Zealand, bookkeepers commonly work in Xero and MYOB; 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.
A workable rhythm: download the month's PDF the day the period closes, convert it, read the reconciliation verdict, then import. Months proven in order chain together — each closing balance becomes the next month's opening — so a difference is always owned by exactly one month.
Import the OFX file into a copy or a test account first if your software allows it: OFX imports typically cannot be undone in bulk, and a thirty-second trial shows whether the date range and account mapping are right before the real ledger takes the file.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: where the portal shows a 'final' or 'corrected' version of a statement, convert that one — reissued statements supersede the original figures.
Save the statement as a PDF from Rabobank New Zealand online banking, add it to the converter above, and take the an OFX-formatted export of the statement's transactions it produces. Extraction, column normalization and the reconciliation check all happen before the download is offered.
Like most banks in New Zealand, Rabobank New Zealand prints dates as day/month/year — 03/04/2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with a comma for thousands and a point for decimals (1,234.56). Conversion normalizes dates to an unambiguous form in the output while leaving the figures themselves untouched.
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.
Scan the statement as flat and straight as you can and upload the scan. OCR reads it, and the reconciliation check verifies the read against the printed balances; rows it cannot verify are flagged for a manual look.
That depends on the bank's portal — most keep at least a year of PDFs online, and older periods can usually be requested. However far back you go, download each period as its own PDF.
The QuickBooks and Xero exports are laid out in the column order those tools import. The plain CSV and Excel exports suit everything else, including spreadsheet review before import.
Yes — it is one of the strongest checks available. The converter walks the extracted amounts against the printed running balance row by row, so a single dropped or duplicated transaction is pinpointed instead of merely suspected.
Convert them separately and import only one version of the overlap. Banks occasionally reissue a corrected statement for a period; the later issue supersedes the earlier, and importing both would double the shared days.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
