How to Switch from LastPass to Bitwarden

‍

This tutorial shows how to move your saved passwords from LastPass to Bitwarden by exporting a CSV file from LastPass and importing it into your Bitwarden account on the web.

Notes

• You'll need an active LastPass account and an existing Bitwarden account to complete this process. You already have an exported CSV file that contains all your passwords in plain text; delete it from your computer immediately after the import is complete. Before exporting, temporarily turn off any backup software so the unencrypted file isn't saved to your backups.
• Importing does not check for duplicates. If you import the same file more than once, duplicate items will be created.
  

1. Go to vault.bitwarden.com in your browser and sign in to your Bitwarden account.
2. Click Tools in the left navigation sidebar, then select Import from the dropdown.
3. On the Import page, select your import destination - for example, your individual vault or an organization vault - then select LastPass (csv) as the file format from the dropdown.
4. If you'd like the imported items moved to a specific folder, select it from the Folder dropdown. Otherwise, leave it set to No folder.
5. Click Choose File and select your LastPass CSV file, then click Import to begin. Enter your master password in the confirmation window when prompted.
6. Your passwords are now available across all your Bitwarden apps and browser extensions. Review the import summary to confirm how many items were added. Go back to your computer and permanently delete the CSV file.
