What to download

Use a statement export that includes date, transaction description, debit and credit columns or an amount column, and balance if available. CSV is usually easiest because the transaction columns are already structured. PDF works best when the statement text can be selected and copied.

What is specific to Emirates NBD

Emirates NBD may split longer date ranges into multiple files. Upload each file in order, or choose 30 to 60 days at a time for the first pass.

Tip: Choose CSV when offered. Separate debit and credit columns reduce sign-detection mistakes.
