Encrypted Exports provide a secure long-term storage option for Vault data backups. Vault data is encrypted using your account's Encryption Key.
|

Vault data can be [exported]({% link _articles/account/export-your-data.md %}) in an encrypted JSON file. These exports are encrypted using your [account's encryption key]({% link _articles/account/account-encryption-key.md %}), which are generated on account creation and unique to each Bitwarden user account.

Importing an Encrypted Export following the same procedure as importing a plaintext `.csv` or `.json` file:
|
||||
Importing an Encrypted Export follows the [normal import procedure]({% link _articles/importing/import-data.md %}), which can **only be done from the** [**Web Vault**](https://vault.bitwarden.com){:target="\_blank"}:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
3. From the format dropdown, choose **Bitwarden (json)**.
|
||||

|
||||
5. Select the **Browse** button and add your file.
|
||||
{% callout success %}There is no import option specifically for Encrypted Exports. A handler will determine that the `.json` file is encrypted and attempt to decrypt the file using your [account's encryption key]({% link _articles/account/account-encryption-key.md %}).{% endcallout %}
|
||||
5. Select the **Choose File** button and add the file to import.
|
||||
|
||||
{% callout warning %}Import to Bitwarden can't check whether items in the file to import are duplicative of items in your Vault. This means that **importing multiple files will create duplicative** Vault items if an item is already in the Vault and in the file to import.{% endcallout %}
|
||||
6. Select the **Import Data** button to complete your import.
|
||||
|
||||
{% callout warning %}
