What does a LCL statement PDF look like?

Printed structure: PDF releve with Date, Libelle, Debit, Credit, Solde

Date notation: DD/MM/YYYY. Money notation: EUR EUR. Observed statement size: 3-18 pages.

Depending on the country, amounts may use a comma decimal and period thousands separator (1.234,56); the locale is detected before parsing so credits and debits are never swapped.

In French, this document is a relevé bancaire. LCL, anciennement Crédit Lyonnais, affiche la date d'opération et la date de valeur séparément sur son relevé, ce qui explique un léger décalage entre les deux dans le solde.

What fields does LCL France print on each transaction row?

The profile uses the bank-specific observations below as review checkpoints. They describe the source document rather than making a generic promise about every PDF:

  • LCL checkpoint 1: Formerly Crédit Lyonnais, rebranded LCL in 2005 and owned by Crédit Agricole Group since 2003 — a traditional branch network bank, unlike France's newer digital-only banks
  • LCL checkpoint 2: Card and ATM rows include compact merchant labels (libellés) that should remain intact rather than being shortened further
  • LCL checkpoint 3: Value-date (date de valeur) rows can appear beside the operation date (date d'opération), and the two can differ by a day or more
  • LCL checkpoint 4: Fees and insurance rows often need separate export lines for accounting rather than being folded into ordinary transactions
