PDF Password Remover
Remove the password from a PDF you can already open and download an unlocked copy, with the text still selectable. Works on bank and card statements, payslips and protected forms — everything runs in your browser, so the file and password are never uploaded.
Remove a PDF password in 3 steps
Drop in the PDF you need to unlock — a bank or card statement, payslip or protected form. It never leaves your device.
If the PDF needs a password to open, type the one you already use. If it only blocks printing or copying, there is nothing to type — the restrictions are removed automatically.
Get a copy with no password and no restrictions. The text stays selectable, so you can copy details or upload it to a form.
What people use it for
Statements open with a password built from your own details. Remove it once and keep a copy you can open, print or upload without typing the password every time.
Some portals reject password-protected PDFs outright. Save an open copy so your statement or payslip actually uploads.
Payroll PDFs are often locked with your employee ID or PAN. Unlock a copy for your records or a rental or loan application.
If a PDF opens but blocks printing or copying, remove the owner restrictions and use it normally.
Benefits
- Keeps the text selectable and searchable — a true unlock, not a picture of the pages.
- Handles both open-passwords and owner restrictions (blocked printing or copying).
- Runs fully in your browser — a sensitive file like a bank statement is never uploaded.
- Free, no sign-up, and no watermark on the unlocked PDF.

Frequently asked questions
How do I remove a password from a PDF?
Add the PDF, and if it asks for a password type the one you already use to open it. The tool decrypts the file on your device and gives you an unlocked copy to download, with the text still selectable. If the PDF only has restrictions (blocked printing or copying), those are removed automatically without a password.
Can you remove a password I have forgotten?
No — and be wary of any tool that claims it can. Removing a password means either knowing it or breaking the encryption, and breaking a modern PDF's encryption is not possible in a browser. This tool unlocks a PDF you can already open. If you have lost the password, ask whoever issued the file — your bank, employer or the sender — for a fresh copy.
What is the password for my bank statement PDF?
Banks build it from your own details — commonly your date of birth, PAN, customer ID, account number, or the first letters of your name. The exact format is written in the email or SMS that delivered the statement. We cannot see or guess it; you enter it yourself.
Does the unlocked PDF keep its text?
Yes. Unlike converting pages to images, this decrypts the file and re-saves it, so the text stays selectable and searchable — useful when you need to copy a transaction, balance or detail into a form.
Is my PDF or password uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is opened and unlocked entirely inside your browser, on your device, and the password is used only there. Nothing is sent to a server, which matters for private documents like statements and payslips.
What is the difference between an open-password and restrictions?
An open-password (or user password) is the one you type to view the PDF at all. Owner restrictions let the file open but block printing, copying or editing. This tool removes both: it asks for the open-password when there is one, and strips restrictions automatically.
Which PDFs does it work on?
PDFs encrypted with the standard schemes banks and payroll systems use — RC4, AES-128 and AES-256. As long as you can open the file with its password, it can be unlocked.
Is it free?
Yes, completely free with no sign-up and no watermark. Unlock as many PDFs as you like.
