UOB statements to OFX: what you get

This .ofx file carries the reconciled UOB transactions in standard OFX structure — the format to choose when your software's import menu lists OFX, QFX or 'bank statement file' rather than CSV.

The main use is any workflow that asks for a 'bank statement file' rather than a spreadsheet. 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. UOB prints balances that its transaction list must sum to; the converter repeats that sum independently on the extracted data. Passing both checks is the only route to a reconciled result; there is no partial pass and no silent correction. What cannot be proven is labelled, never smoothed over.

Two habits make UOB 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. A reconciliation difference is most often one of those large items — a duplicate, a drop, or a digit misread — and knowing the candidates in advance shortens the search considerably.

In Singapore, bookkeepers commonly work in Xero and QuickBooks; 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.

Working from UOB statements as a bookkeeper

Ask clients for the issued PDFs rather than portal screenshots or spreadsheet exports. The PDF is the only version that carries the balances the check needs, and a folder of monthly PDFs plus their conversion results is an audit trail that assembles itself.

Before you use the file

If your software offers both OFX import and a live bank feed for the same account, use one or the other for a given period, never both: the same transactions arriving twice is the most common cause of a doubled month.

How to download a statement PDF from UOB

  1. Log in the way you normally bank. Statements downloaded from the bank's own portal are the document of record. Avoid email forwards and re-saved copies where you can.
  2. Pick the account and the month. Statements usually live under the account menu, labelled Statements, Documents, or eStatements, depending on the bank.
  3. Choose the statement period. Pick the month (or months) you need. For catch-up bookkeeping, download each month as its own PDF.
  4. Save the PDF unchanged. Do not annotate, merge or reprint the file before converting — the reader works best on the document exactly as issued.
  5. Convert it on this page. Add the file to the converter on this page. You can add several statement PDFs at once for batch conversion.

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.

Questions and answers

How do I convert a UOB statement to OFX?

Get the PDF from UOB's statements area, upload it here, and download the converted an OFX-formatted export of the statement's transactions. The converter reads the transactions, standardizes the columns and verifies the totals against the statement before the file is ready.

What date and number formats do UOB statements use?

Expect the order printed on the statement itself dates and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself on a UOB 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.

What does the reconciliation check do?

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.

What if UOB only offers paper statements?

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.

How far back can I get UOB statements?

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.

Is the converted file ready to import into my accounting software?

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.

My UOB statement has a running balance column. Is it used?

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.

What if two UOB statements cover overlapping days?

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.

Are my statement files kept?

No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
