Use this article for help exporting data from LastPass and importing into Bitwarden.

## Export from LastPass

Complete the following steps to export data from the [LastPass Web Vault](https://lastpass.com/){:target="\_blank"}:

1. Select **More Options...** from the left sidebar.
2. Select the **Advanced** dropdown option, and select **Export**.
3. Enter your Master Password to validate the export attempt.

   Your Vault data will be decrypted and printed to the screen in a `.csv` format.

4. Highlight the printed text, and copy and paste it into a new `export.csv` file.

{% callout warning %}
**Some users have reported a bug** which changes special characters in your passwords (`&`, `<`, `>`, etc.) to their HTML-encoded values (for example, `&amp;`) in the printed export.

If you observe this bug in your exported data, use a text editor to find and replace all altered values before importing into Bitwarden.

Alternatively, use the [LastPass Pocket application](https://lastpass.com/misc_download2.php){:target="_blank"} to export your CSV data. The LastPass Pocket application does not appear to be affected by these bugs.

### Export with Form Fills

**Exports from the Web Vault will not include form fills.** To export form fill data from LastPass, you must do so from the Browser Extension:

1. In the Browser Extension, navigate to **Account Options** &rarr; **Advanced** &rarr; **Export** &rarr; **Form Fills**.
2. Enter your Master Password to validate the export attempt.

   Your Vault data will be decrypted and printed to the screen in a  `.csv` format.

4. Highlight the printed text, and copy and paste it into a new `export.csv` file.

## Import to Bitwarden

1. Log in to the [Web Vault](https://vault.bitwarden.com){:target="\_blank"}.
2. Select **Tools** from the top navigation bar.
3. Select **Import Data** from the left Tools menu.
4. Select **LastPass (csv)** from the format dropdown.
5. Select the **Browse...** button and add the file exported from LastPass.
6. Select the **Import Data** button to complete your import.

{% callout warning %}
Importing data multiple times will create duplicates.
{% endcallout %}

Congratulations! You have just transferred your data from LastPass into Bitwarden.
