ClearlyLedger converts Bancolombia PDF extracto files into structured Excel and CSV for Colombian contadores, bookkeepers and SMEs. Bancolombia is Colombia's largest bank by assets, formed through a 2005 merger of Bancolombia, Conavi and Corfinsura, and is one of the few Colombian companies with a New York Stock Exchange listing via ADRs.

Bancolombia delivers statements as encrypted PDFs, and the account holder's cédula (national ID) number is the password required to open them — a detail generic converters often don't handle at all.
ClearlyLedger accepts the cédula-protected PDF directly and unlocks it locally before extraction, without the password ever leaving that step.
COP amounts may use dots for thousands separators rather than commas, and transaction descriptions can span multiple wrapped lines that need stitching back together rather than treating each line as a separate row.
Balance rows and statement headers need excluding from export so the transaction table doesn't pick up chrome text as if it were a row.
Use Excel when reviewing figures for a contador, annual accounts, or reconciling against DIAN (Dirección de Impuestos y Aduanas Nacionales) filings. Use CSV for import into Colombian accounting software such as Siigo.
ClearlyLedger's balance verification checks extracted rows against the printed saldo before export, helping catch a missing row before bookkeeping starts.
Printed statement structure: Spanish PDF with Fecha, Descripción, Débito, Crédito and Saldo
Source conventions: DD/MM/YYYY dates, $ COP amounts, and 6-30 pages.
These Bancolombia details identify the rows most likely to need inspection after extraction. Review the first and final transaction, each PDF page boundary, and any row affected by the observations above before using the spreadsheet in an accounting import.
