Based in Apia, Samoa, National Bank of Samoa 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.

The OFX export packages the National Bank of Samoa statement for software that speaks the Open Financial Exchange format: dated, signed transactions in a structured file that older desktop bookkeeping tools import natively.
The main use is rebuilding history in software after a bank feed has lapsed. 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.
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 National Bank of Samoa statement, then walk the running balances row by row. 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.
A National Bank of Samoa statement's layout decides how differences behave. In a chronological layout with a running balance, a single dropped row shifts every later balance, which makes it easy to spot. 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 Samoa, bookkeepers commonly work in 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.
OFX files carry no opening-balance field your software will trust blindly — check the account's starting figure in the software against the statement's opening balance before reconciling, so the import builds on the same anchor the conversion check used.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: download statements as the periods close rather than in a year-end scramble; portals sometimes archive older periods behind request forms.
Save the statement as a PDF from National Bank of Samoa 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.
Expect the order printed on the statement itself dates and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself on a National Bank of Samoa statement. The reader is locale-aware, so those conventions are handled rather than misread, and the output columns come out in the standard layout regardless.
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. Download each month as its own PDF and upload them together — batch mode converts them in one run and, in Excel, adds a combined sheet. Each statement is still reconciled separately, because balances are per statement.
Yes. Credit-card statements use a Previous Balance / New Balance layout, which the converter reads as well; purchases are positive and payments are negative, and the same totals check applies.
Date, Description, Amount, Debit, Credit and Balance — the same normalized columns for every bank, so a National Bank of Samoa file and a file from any other bank in Samoa can be imported and reviewed the same way.
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. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
