How to Export Your ING Statement as PDF or CSV

To export an ING statement, sign in to ING online banking or the ING app, select your account, then open the statements or documents area to download the official PDF, or use the download option on the transaction list to get a CSV. Menus differ slightly by country, but the path is always account first, then either documents for a PDF or export for a CSV.
PDF statement vs transaction export: not the same file
Before you click anything, it helps to know there are two different files, and they serve different purposes.
- The official statement PDF is a formal, periodic document ING generates for your records. It is laid out like a printed bank statement, with a header, opening and closing balance, and a fixed period such as a month. It is great for proof of address or a loan application.
- A transaction export is the raw list of account activity, usually as CSV or Excel, and in some countries CAMT or MT940 for accounting software. It covers whatever date range you choose and is the better file when you want to analyse where your money goes.
For spotting recurring charges and fees, the transaction export is usually the more useful one because it lists every single line. That said, VESTELON FLOW reads either format, so use whichever your ING login makes easiest.
This is only an estimate. Upload your statement to find your real number.
Export an ING statement in online banking
From a desktop or laptop browser, follow these steps:
- Go to the ING website for your country and sign in to online banking with your usual credentials.
- From your dashboard or account overview, click the account you want, usually your current or checking account.
- For the official PDF, open the area labelled something like Statements, Documents, Mailbox or Account statements. Pick the period you need and download the PDF.
- For a transaction export, stay on the account’s transaction list and look for a Download, Export or Save button, often near a small download icon above or below the list.
- Choose your format. CSV or Excel works for analysis. If you only see CAMT or MT940, that is fine too, those are also account activity files.
- Set the date range, then confirm. The file saves to your computer’s downloads folder.
Export an ING statement in the ING app
On a phone or tablet the wording is shorter, but the idea is the same:
- Open the ING app and log in with your PIN, fingerprint or face unlock.
- Tap the account you want to export from.
- For a PDF, look for Documents, Statements or an inbox or mailbox icon, then choose the statement period and tap to download or share it.
- For a transaction export, open the account’s transaction list and tap the menu, often three dots or a share or download icon, then choose to export or download the transactions.
- Pick your date range and format, then save the file to your device or send it to yourself by email or cloud storage so it is easy to find later.
If the app only offers PDFs and you would rather have a CSV, switch to online banking in a browser, where the export options are usually broader.
ING menus differ by country
ING operates in several countries, and each region runs its own version of online banking, so labels and button placement vary. In the Netherlands the export sits on the transaction list and is often called download. In Germany, where the bank trades as ING-DiBa, you may see Kontoauszug for the PDF and a separate Umsatzanzeige export for transactions. Australia, Spain and other markets each phrase things a little differently. The two-step logic still holds everywhere: account first, then documents for a PDF or export for a CSV. If you cannot find the button, use the search box in your online banking or check ING’s help pages for your country.
Choosing a date range
The date range you pick shapes how useful the file is. Recurring charges, subscriptions and bank fees often repeat monthly, quarterly or yearly, so a short window can hide them. To see the full pattern, export at least three months, and ideally a full twelve months. A year-long export catches the annual charges, like insurance renewals or yearly memberships, that are the easiest to forget and the most worth reviewing.
The next step: let FLOW read the file
Once you have the file, you do not have to comb through hundreds of lines by hand. Upload your ING PDF or CSV to VESTELON FLOW and it reads the statement, then lists every recurring charge, subscription and fee it finds. There is no bank login and no need to connect your account, you simply hand over the one file you already exported. Your first report is free, so you can see exactly what is draining your balance each month before deciding anything.
Common questions
Should I export the PDF or the CSV from ING?
For analysing spending and finding recurring charges, the CSV or Excel transaction export is usually better because it lists every line as data. The PDF is best for formal proof. VESTELON FLOW reads both, so either works.
My ING app only shows PDF statements, where is the CSV?
Some regional apps only offer PDFs. Sign in to ING online banking from a desktop browser instead, open your account’s transaction list, and look for the download or export option there, which usually includes CSV.
Is it safe to upload my ING statement to FLOW?
VESTELON FLOW is privacy-first and never asks for your bank login or password. You only upload the single file you exported yourself, and FLOW simply reads it to list your recurring charges and fees.
Upload one bank statement. FLOW shows exactly where your money leaks today, what it is worth once you redirect it, and the year it could set you free. Not another tracker: a plan you can act on.
