FAQ

Is it legal to unlock bank statement PDFs?▼

Yes. As the rightful owner of the document, you can remove the password for personal use. Banks add passwords for email transmission security, not to prevent you from accessing your own statements.

Does this work with US bank statements?▼

Yes. Works with Chase, Bank of America, Citibank, Wells Fargo, US Bank, and all other US banks that use PDF protection.

Will my bank know I unlocked the PDF?▼

No. Unlocking is done locally on your device. No connection is made to your bank. The bank has no way of knowing.

Can I use the unlocked PDF for loans or official purposes?▼

Yes. An unlocked PDF is identical to the original — just without password protection. It's accepted anywhere.
