Novo Banco, based in Lisbon, Portugal, delivers account statements as PDFs through its online banking portal. Convert Novo Banco statement PDFs to Excel, CSV or an accounting format — with a reconciliation check on every conversion.
For sharing clean figures with a client, partner or adviser who works in Excel.
For bulk processing, where hundreds of statements convert into one pipeline.
For desktop accounting and personal-finance software that imports OFX or QFX.
Statements from Portugal banks print dates as day/month/year, often written day.month.year — 03.04.2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with points or spaces for thousands and a comma 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.
The check itself is simple arithmetic, applied without exception: add the opening balance to every extracted transaction and compare the result with the closing balance printed on the Novo Banco statement, then walk the running balances row by row. A dropped row, a duplicated row or a misread digit breaks the chain and is flagged at the row where it breaks, with the expected and printed balances shown side by side.
Read a Novo Banco statement as three zones. The header zone names the account and the period — check those first, because a wrong-period PDF converts beautifully and reconciles against the wrong month. The middle zone is the transaction list itself. 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 Portugal, bookkeepers commonly work in Sage; the Excel and CSV exports from this converter are the files those tools import, and the CSV 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.
Each format above serves a different next step. Excel suits review and analysis — figures you will sort, total and annotate. CSV suits import into anything and long-term archiving. QuickBooks and Xero exports match those tools' own import layouts, so the file uploads without remapping. OFX suits desktop software that expects a structured bank file. Converting costs nothing extra per format: many people take Excel for their own review and the accounting format for the books.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: keep the downloaded PDFs in a folder named by account and month. A tidy folder makes batch conversion and later review almost mechanical.
Download the statement PDF from Novo Banco online banking, upload it to the converter on this page, and download the an Excel (.xlsx) workbook. The transactions are extracted, put into the same standard columns used for every bank, and checked against the statement's balances first.
Like most banks in Portugal, Novo Banco prints dates as day/month/year, often written day.month.year — 03.04.2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with points or spaces for thousands and a comma 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.
Yes — convert each account's statements separately so each one reconciles against its own balances, then combine the exports in your software if you need a single view.
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.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
Your first conversion is free — no card, no sign-up — and every result is checked against the statement itself before you download it.
