How to Import Passwords into Bitwarden from Any Browser or App
Moving to Bitwarden from Chrome, Safari, LastPass, or 1Password is straightforward. Here is exactly how to import from each one.
Bitwarden supports importing passwords from over 50 different sources including all major browsers and password managers. Here is the specific process for the most common sources.
Importing from Chrome
Open Chrome. Go to Settings then Passwords or navigate to chrome://password-manager/passwords. Click the settings icon and select Export passwords. Save the CSV file. In Bitwarden web vault at vault.bitwarden.com, go to Tools then Import Data. Select Chrome as the format. Upload the CSV file and click Import Data. All your Chrome passwords appear in your Bitwarden vault immediately.
Importing from Safari
Open Safari on Mac. Go to File then Export then Passwords. Enter your Mac password to confirm. Save the CSV file. In Bitwarden web vault, go to Tools then Import Data. Select Safari as the format. Upload the file and import. Note: Safari password export is only available on Mac, not iPhone or iPad.
Importing from LastPass
Log into your LastPass account. Go to Account Options then Advanced then Export. Enter your master password. Save the CSV file. In Bitwarden, go to Tools then Import Data. Select LastPass as the format. Upload and import. LastPass exports include all item types including secure notes.
Importing from 1Password
Open 1Password. Go to File then Export then All Items. Choose the 1PUX format for the most complete export, or CSV for basic passwords. In Bitwarden, go to Tools then Import Data. Select 1Password 1PUX or 1Password CSV as appropriate. Upload and import.
Importing from Firefox
Open Firefox. Go to the menu then Passwords. Click the three-dot menu in the password manager and select Export Passwords. Save the CSV. In Bitwarden, select Firefox CSV as the import format and upload.
After importing
Review the imported items for accuracy. Update any passwords that may have changed since the export. Enable the Bitwarden browser extension in your browser and set it as the default autofill service. You can now safely remove your passwords from the old source.
