Emirates NBD e-Statement Password (2026)

Account e-Statements open with your primary CIF ID, which Emirates NBD says is the middle 8 digits of your account number; credit card e-statements carry their own instructions.

As of October 2026, Emirates NBD says the password for an account e-Statement is your primary CIF ID, which is the middle 8 digits of your account number. Type the 8 digits with no spaces. Credit card e-statements are also password protected, but the bank points you to the instructions in the statement email rather than publishing the rule.

The password format

On its e-Statements page, Emirates NBD answers the question directly: "the password is the primary CIF ID" and "The CIF ID is the middle 8 digits of your account number." The CIF (customer information file) number identifies you as a customer, so the same password usually works for every account held under that CIF.

Statement	Password
Current or savings account e-Statement	Primary CIF ID (middle 8 digits of the account number)
Credit card e-statement	See the instructions in the statement email

The credit card statement help page confirms card e-statements are password protected and says "You'll find instructions on your credit card statement." Read the email the statement came with for the exact rule.

Worked example

Khalid Rahman (made-up) has a savings account. His account number is 1010123456701 (made-up). Leaving out the first three and last two digits leaves the middle 8 digits, 01234567, so that is the password he types when the PDF asks for one.

Account numbers can have different lengths, so working out "the middle" by counting can be error-prone. The safest way is to look up your CIF number directly: it is shown in the Emirates NBD app or Online Banking profile, and the Customer Service Centre can tell you. Include any leading zeros.

If the password doesn't work

Emirates NBD lists three common reasons a password is rejected:

• A typing error or a space at the end of the CIF number. Some phones add a space after autofill; delete it.
• You don't know your correct CIF ID. Check it in the app or ask the bank rather than guessing from the account number.
• You have several CIFs. If you hold accounts under different CIF numbers (for example a personal and a joint relationship), use the CIF of the account this statement is for.

Other things to check:

• Use a proper PDF reader. The bank says you need Adobe Acrobat Reader 6.0 or later; on a phone, the Acrobat app works on iPhone, iPad and Android.
• Card statements are different. The CIF rule is for account e-Statements. For a credit card statement, follow the email.
• Call the bank. Emirates NBD's Customer Service Centre is on 600 54 0000. They will never ask for your Online Banking password.

Getting e-Statements

The bank says existing Online Banking users are enrolled by default, statements arrive by email on the same cycle as paper statements, and the service is free. Each account is subscribed separately. You can change the email address under Profile in Online Banking.

Removing the password so you don't have to type it again

Once the statement opens, you can keep an unlocked copy so you are not typing the password every month. On iPhone, iPad or Mac, UnKey does this offline: you enter the password you already know, and it saves a copy without the password on your device. Nothing is uploaded. On a Mac you can also open the PDF in Preview and export a copy. On Android, the PDF opens with the password in Google Files, Google Drive or Adobe Acrobat Reader, and you can then use Print and choose Save as PDF to keep a copy without the password. Store the unlocked copy somewhere private, because anyone who gets hold of it can read your transactions.
