If you have been using Amazon for many years, you may have accumulated hundreds or even thousands of orders over time. Manually browsing your purchase history can become inconvenient, especially when you need to analyze expenses, create an archive, prepare a report, or work with Excel.
One of the most common needs is therefore to understand how to export Amazon orders to CSV or PDF, possibly by choosing a specific range of years.
Amazon allows you to view your complete order history from your account, but for a standard customer account it does not always provide a simple tool to directly convert the entire history into a CSV file ready for Excel. The image below shows the classic Amazon Orders page where you can view and search all purchases year by year.
In this guide, we will look at several ways to export and archive Amazon orders, starting with the simplest solution: a Chrome extension specifically designed to export Amazon orders to CSV and PDF.
Why Export Your Amazon Order History?
Having a structured copy of your Amazon purchases can be useful in many situations.
- Check how much you have spent on Amazon each year.
- Open all your purchases directly in Excel or Google Sheets.
- Create a personal archive of your orders.
- Track purchases made for work.
- Prepare expense reports or administrative documentation.
- Compare spending between different years.
- Quickly find a product you purchased a long time ago.
- Keep a PDF report that can also be viewed offline.
- Analyze the number of orders, total spending, and average spending.
Amazon still allows users to access their complete order history from their account. It is important to remember that if an Amazon account is closed, the order history will generally no longer be accessible; Amazon itself recommends saving any documents and invoices you may need beforehand.
Method 1: Amazon Orders to CSV / PDF Exporter
The easiest way to turn the Amazon Orders page directly into a usable file is Amazon Orders to CSV / PDF Exporter, a Google Chrome extension created specifically for this purpose.
The extension works directly on the Your Orders section of your Amazon account and lets you collect orders from different years without having to copy them manually.
Export to CSV
CSV is especially useful when you want to work with the data later.
Once opened in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, or similar software, you can:
- sort purchases by date;
- filter orders;
- search for products;
- create custom formulas;
- calculate totals and averages;
- build pivot tables;
- create additional charts and statistics.
Dates are exported without extra wording such as “Order placed on”, making it easier to work with the date column later in Excel.
Export Amazon Orders to PDF
If you prefer a document that is easier to read or print, the extension can also create a PDF report of your Amazon orders.
Product preview images can also be included in the PDF, which is particularly useful when you want to quickly recognize an old purchase without having to read all the details in the row.
Select the Years to Export
One of the main advantages of the extension is the ability to choose a specific time range.
For example, you can export:
- only orders from 2026;
- orders from 2024 to 2026;
- or the entire order history available in the account.
By default, the most recent available year is selected, but you can freely change the range before starting the export.
How to Use Amazon Orders to CSV / PDF Exporter
The process is very simple.
- Install the extension in Google Chrome.
- Sign in to your Amazon account as usual.
- Open the Your Orders section.
- Click the extension icon.
- Choose the year or range of years you want to analyze.
- Click START EXPORT.
- Wait while the extension scans the Amazon order pages.
- Download the result in CSV or PDF format.
If you open the extension while you are on another Amazon page, it also displays a direct link to the correct Orders page.
Analyze Your Amazon Spending
In addition to simple exporting, the extension includes an Analytics section designed for users who want to better understand how much they have spent on Amazon and how their spending has changed over time.
The available statistics include:
- total spending;
- total number of orders;
- average spending per order;
- spending by year;
- number of orders by year;
- charts showing purchase trends.
Analytics data can also be exported to CSV or PDF.
This means you do not need to manually create formulas and charts in Excel just to get an initial overview of your spending.

FREE and PRO Versions
Amazon Orders to CSV / PDF Exporter can also be used for free.
The FREE version lets you test the extension and export the first 50 rows of the collected order history.
The PRO version removes this limitation and allows you to generate complete reports, even for accounts with many years of purchase history.
The PRO version also gives full access to the reporting and export features available in the Analytics section.
Compatibility with Different Amazon Marketplaces
The extension is not designed only for Amazon.it.
It can recognize different Amazon marketplaces and interfaces, including:
- Amazon.it
- Amazon.com
- Amazon.co.uk
- Amazon.de
- Amazon.fr
- Amazon.es
- and other supported Amazon marketplaces.
This is especially important because the wording used on the Amazon Orders page changes depending on the language.
The extension therefore tries to rely mainly on the structure of the Amazon page and the technical parameters used by the website, rather than depending only on labels such as “Order placed”, “Ordine effettuato”, or equivalent phrases in other languages.
CSV or PDF: Which Format Should You Choose?
The two formats are suitable for different needs.
Choose CSV If You Want to Analyze the Data
CSV is the best option when your goal is to:
- use Excel;
- sort and filter purchases;
- perform calculations;
- create charts;
- combine data from multiple sources;
- use the information in other programs.
Choose PDF If You Want to Create an Archive
PDF is more suitable when you want to:
- keep a readable copy of your orders;
- print the report;
- consult it quickly;
- view product images as well;
- share a report without using Excel.
Of course, there is nothing stopping you from creating both files and keeping the CSV for analysis and the PDF as an archive.
Method 2: Manually Copy Orders into Excel
If you only need to recover a small number of orders, you can also use a completely manual method.
You can open the Amazon Your Orders page, select the desired year, and copy the necessary information into Excel.
The advantage is that you do not need to install any additional tool.
The downside is obvious: with dozens or hundreds of orders, the process becomes very time-consuming and can easily lead to errors or missing rows.
For this reason, it is only a reasonable solution when you need to recover a limited number of purchases.
Method 3: Save or Download Amazon Invoices
If your goal is not to analyze all your purchases but simply to keep tax or accounting documentation, it may be more useful to download the Amazon order invoices directly.
From the order history, you can access the documents available for individual purchases and save them as PDF files.
Amazon Business users also have access to specific features for managing and downloading documents related to orders.
This method is particularly useful for accounting, but it does not replace a CSV file when you want to create statistics across your entire purchase history.
Method 4: Amazon Business
Users with an Amazon Business account have access to more advanced reporting tools than standard Amazon customers.
Amazon Business provides dedicated purchase-analysis features and also offers reporting APIs that can be used by authorized organizations and developers.
The Amazon Business Reporting API, for example, can be used to retrieve order reports for a specific time range and can include information such as the order number, total amount, and status.
However, this solution is mainly intended for business environments and software integrations, with authentication and authorization procedures that are much more complex than using a simple Chrome extension.
Method 5: Export Orders from Amazon Seller Central
It is important not to confuse orders placed as an Amazon customer with orders received as an Amazon seller.
If you sell products on Amazon, you can use Seller Central and access the section dedicated to order reports.
Amazon allows sellers to generate different types of order reports and download them as flat files, which can then be opened or converted to CSV using Excel.
However, this feature applies to orders received as a seller and is not a way to automatically export purchases made with a regular Amazon customer account.
Method 6: Create a Personal Purchase Archive
If you use Amazon frequently, it may be useful to adopt an ongoing archiving strategy.
For example, once a year you could:
- export all orders for that year to CSV;
- also create a PDF copy;
- download important invoices separately;
- save everything in a folder named after the year;
- keep a backup copy on an external drive or personal cloud storage.
Over time, this gives you a complete historical archive that is independent of the Amazon interface.
How to Analyze the Amazon CSV with Excel
After generating the CSV file with the extension, you can open it directly in Excel.
Some useful analyses include:
Calculate How Much You Spent Each Year
Using filters, formulas, or a pivot table, you can group your total purchases by year.
Find the Months When You Spend the Most
Starting from the date column, you can add the month and compare spending throughout the year.
Count the Number of Purchases
A simple count lets you see how many rows or orders were recorded during a specific period.
Compare Multiple Years
Using a pivot table or chart, you can quickly compare, for example, Amazon spending in 2024, 2025, and 2026.
For an immediate overview, however, this information is already available directly in the extension’s Analytics section.
Is It Possible to Export All Amazon Orders Automatically?
Yes. You can use a tool that scans the order-history pages and automatically moves from one year and one page to the next.
This is exactly the purpose of Amazon Orders to CSV / PDF Exporter: to avoid having to manually open every page and copy the information one order at a time.
Of course, the user must already be signed in to their Amazon account and must be able to normally view the orders in the browser.
Conclusion
Exporting Amazon orders can be useful for both personal needs and administrative or professional purposes.
If you want to quickly obtain a file that can be used in Excel or create a PDF archive, Amazon Orders to CSV / PDF Exporter is a practical solution because it works directly with the order history already available in your account.
CSV is ideal for analyzing and processing the data, while PDF provides a clean and easy-to-read document that can also include product images.
The Analytics section adds another level of insight by showing total spending, number of orders, average spending, and annual trends.
For more specific needs, other valid options are still available: manually downloading invoices, using Amazon Business tools, using Seller Central if you are a seller, or periodically creating your own personal archive of purchases.
If you have a long Amazon order history, exporting it periodically can be a useful way to keep your spending under control and preserve an independent, easy-to-access record over time.
