About UOB Statements
United Overseas Bank (UOB) is one of Singapore's three major banks with extensive Southeast Asian operations. Their statements follow Singaporean banking conventions with detailed transaction tracking across multiple currencies. The regional network means statements handle cross-border ASEAN transactions with comprehensive details.
Statement Conversion Notes
UOB statements show SGD amounts with Asian date formatting. FAST instant payment transactions include unique reference identifiers.
UOB Statement Format Details
Understanding the specific layout and structure of UOB PDF statements helps ensure accurate conversion to QuickBooks. Here is what our parser handles for this bank:
1
United Overseas Bank (UOB) Singapore statements use DD/MM/YYYY date format — amounts are displayed with period decimal separator (e.g., "SGD 1,234.56") following Singapore financial reporting conventions
2
UOB BIBPlus (corporate internet banking) PDF exports include an additional "Cheque Number" column for issued cheques — this column is blank for electronic transactions and should be treated as an optional reference field
3
UOB Privilege Banking and Wealth Banking statements include an investment portfolio snapshot at the end of the document — the portfolio section uses a different column layout and must be excluded from transaction data extraction
4
FAST (Fast and Secure Transfers) and PayNow transactions appear with the recipient's registered alias in the description (e.g., "FAST To +6591234567 Ref: Invoice001") — the "+" prefix on phone numbers distinguishes PayNow transactions from other transfer types
5
UOB Malaysia (MYR) statements share the same PDF template as Singapore (SGD) but show "MYR" in the currency header — UOB Thailand (THB) statements use a different template with Thai-language section headers and YYYY/MM/DD dates
6
UOB Lady's Card and KrisFlyer co-branded credit card statements include a rewards miles earned column alongside transaction amounts — the miles column appears only in credit card statements and not in bank account statements
Supported Statement Versions
- 2019-2024 personal and business statements from Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and China supported
- UOB BIBPlus corporate exports and personal online banking PDF downloads both handled
- UOB investment account statements (UOB Asset Management) require splitting from bank statements before conversion
Known Issues We Handle
- UOB Malaysia (MYR) and Singapore (SGD) statements are visually identical — always verify the currency code in the statement header before converting to prevent currency misidentification
- UOB Thailand statements use Thai-language column headers (e.g., "วันที่" for date) — the converter detects the Thai locale automatically and maps columns by position rather than header text
