How to move your company's passwords from LastPass to NordPass

You can transfer your company's data stored in LastPass to NordPass by exporting your passwords and other items as a CSV file. 

Note: This guide is indented for business clients and the steps provided here explain how to migrate from LastPass to NordPass Business or Enterprise. To export your personal LastPass account's passwords, follow the steps provided in our How to export passwords from LastPass guide. 

Before you migrate to NordPass, here are a few things you should know on how to export passwords from LastPass:

  • LastPass’ export does not include file attachments. We recommend you download your file attachments before exporting. 

  • NordPass currently does not import TOTP secrets. We are working to include this field in the migration process. Make sure to store your TOTP secrets elsewhere before exporting.

  • Addresses and Payment Cards that contain non-number field data (e.g., “one four five” rather than “145”) will not be imported. We suggest updating this before exporting.

  • Items stored in LastPass’ shared folders will be imported to personal folders in NordPass. To move your items to a shared folder, see our guide on how to import shared folders to NordPass. Please note that Shared Folders is a NordPass Enterprise feature. 

  • Item categories such as SSH Keys, Custom Items, and Bank Accounts will be imported as Secure Notes.

 

Below are two methods to export passwords from LastPass.

  • If this happens, press Cmd + A (for Mac) or Ctrl + A (Windows) to quickly highlight all onscreen text and copy and paste it to Notepad (for Windows) or TextEdit (for macOS) as a plain text file. 

 

Note: For TextEdit, you may need to change the file format from Rich text to Plain text (open TextEdit -> Format -> Make Plain Text).

  • After you save the text file, rename it and add ".csv" to the end of the file name, e.g., "LastPassExport.csv".
