If that's rejected
Date of birth as DDMMYYYY
Customer ID
It has to be the number registered against the account, which is not necessarily the number you use now.
Step by step
- Find the email or SMS that delivered your UCO Bank statement — it states the password rule.
- Try the pattern shown above first.
- Enter it with no spaces, in lower case unless the bank specifies otherwise.
- If it's rejected, work through the alternatives below — the rule often differs between net banking, the app and emailed statements.
- Upload the locked PDF as-is to convert it. You'll be prompted for the password, it unlocks in your browser, and it's never sent to us.
Which mobile number the bank actually holds
UCO Bank is the main Indian bank reported to build the statement password from the registered mobile number. That makes it straightforward when the number is current and impossible to guess when it is not, which is the whole difficulty here.
The number that counts is the one registered against the account, not the one in your pocket. If you changed numbers and updated it with the bank, the newer one applies to statements issued after that change — but a statement downloaded for an older period may still answer to the number registered at the time.
Enter the ten digits alone. No country code, no zero in front, no spaces or dashes. A number copied from a contacts app usually arrives with a +91 attached and has to be stripped.
If the mobile number is refused, UCO statements have also been reported using the date of birth as DDMMYYYY and the customer ID. Where none of the three works, the branch can confirm which number is registered, which is faster than guessing through old numbers.
A practical consequence of the phone-number format: anyone who has your statement and your mobile number can open the file. If you are sending a statement to a lender or an accountant, unlock it first and send the unlocked copy rather than passing on a password that is also your phone number.
UCO pensioners are a common case here. Pension accounts are often opened by a treasury or an employer, and the mobile number captured at that point may be an office number rather than a personal one.

Converting a UCO Bank statement
Skip the Acrobat step: re-saving to drop the password is where most people accidentally turn a clean digital statement into a scan.
Frequently asked questions
Are UCO Bank statements password-protected?expand_more
Yes. Your ten-digit registered mobile number, with no +91, spaces or symbols. UCO is unusual in using the phone number rather than a date or an ID. The email that delivered the statement states the exact rule and overrides any published list, including this one.
What if the UCO Bank password is rejected?expand_more
Work through these in order: Date of birth as DDMMYYYY; Customer ID. UCO Bank may use a different rule for net banking, the app and emailed statements, so the covering email is the only authoritative source.
Where do I download an UCO Bank statement?expand_more
UCO Bank net banking → Accounts → Statement of Account → pick the period → Download PDF, or use the UCO mBanking Plus app.
How do I remove the password from a UCO Bank statement?expand_more
Open it with the password above — Your ten-digit registered mobile number, with no +91, spaces or symbols.
