How to download an HSBC Hong Kong bank statement
HSBC Hong Kong keeps eStatements for up to 84 months. The Online Banking steps, the on-screen history that stops at your last statement, and the PDF.
HSBC Hong Kong calls its statements eStatements and keeps them under eStatements & eAdvices in Online Banking. Below are the steps, how far back HSBC says they go, what the transaction history on screen covers and what to do with the file once it is saved.
Steps in Online Banking
On its eStatement page HSBC lays out the route: “Step 1: Log on to HSBC Online Banking. Hover over 'Banking' on the top menu. Under 'eStatements & eAdvices', select 'View eStatements and eAdvices'. · Step 2: Filter to the account or accounts you'd like to see eStatements / eAdvices for by choosing the 'Category', 'Account' and 'Document type' you want from the dropdown selections. · Step 3: Scroll down and select the eStatement / eAdvice you wish to view. Once you select it, it will download automatically.”. Source: HSBC Hong Kong, eStatement and eAdvice, www.hsbc.com.hk/accounts/estatement/, accessed 8 October 2026.

In the app
The same page has a further step for the app: “Step 4: You can use the 'Document type' or 'Period' filters to narrow down your search results.” For a phone it adds: “For iOS users : tap the button in the top right corner and select the location you want to save the file to.”
How long HSBC keeps them
The retention line depends on the account: “Your eStatements for integrated accounts, HKD current accounts and HKD savings accounts are retained up to 84 months.” For other accounts, HSBC writes that its eStatements “are retained up to 24 months”, and it counts investment services and securities accounts among them. In its Online Banking FAQ the bank puts the longer figure this way: you can view and download eStatements “up to 7 years (84 months)”.

The screen shows less than the eStatement
HSBC’s FAQ answers the question of how far back you can view transaction history. For a credit card or investment account it says “you can view transactions for the last 60 calendar days”. For a current account, savings account or Gold Account it says you can view “transactions that have taken place since your last bank statement”. Anything earlier than that is in the eStatement, which is the document to download. Source: HSBC Hong Kong, Online Banking FAQ, www.hsbc.com.hk/help/faq/internet-banking/, accessed 8 October 2026.
From the HSBC PDF to Excel
The FAQ states the format outright: “All eStatements and eAdvices are in Portable Document Format (PDF).” Drop that PDF into ExtractPro as HSBC produced it. What comes back is an .xlsx with a row per transaction, the date, description and amount in separate columns, the balance too when the eStatement shows it, and each amount stored as a number. A file that arrived by email with a password is unlocked in the browser while it uploads.
When the workbook opens, set its closing balance against the one HSBC prints, and its row count against the transactions on the eStatement. HSBC Hong Kong on ExtractPro:
