You might have chosen to use LastPass as your password manager. However, you might also still have some passwords saved in your favorite web browser, but not in LastPass. Furthermore, there may be situations in which you also have some of your passwords stored in a CSV file. In either case, now that you've switched to LastPass, you want to import all your passwords, from everywhere, to it. Here is how to import passwords into LastPass from Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Microsoft Edge:

NOTE: In the first section of this guide, we cover only Google Chrome and Opera because LastPass can't directly import saved passwords from Mozilla Firefox from Microsoft Edge. If you want to do that, export your browser's passwords to a CSV file, and then read the second section of this tutorial.

How to import passwords into LastPass from Google Chrome or Opera

LastPass offers an easy way for you to import all the passwords you already saved in Chrome or Opera. If that's what you want, open Chrome or Opera, and then click or tap on the LastPass button. You can find it on the right side of the address bar.

If you are not logged in to LastPass, do so now. Enter your email and master password and, if you have the two-step authentication turned on, confirm your identity in your Authenticator app.

Click or tap on the LastPass button once more and, in its menu, select Account Options.

Next, click or tap Advanced.

Now click or tap Import.

On the next page, select Google Chrome Password Manager or Opera Password Manager, depending on your web browser.

Now you should see that a new tab is opened, where LastPass shows you all the passwords saved by the browser that you can import.

Select the ones you want, or press Select All if you want them all, and then click or tap on Import.

After LastPass finishes importing the passwords, it tells you whether the import has been successful. Press OK and you're done.

Then, Chrome or Opera closes the LastPass passwords import tab, and you can carry on doing your work.

NOTE: After importing them to LastPass, we advise you to remove the passwords that are stored in Google Chrome or Opera, so that they are stored safely only in LastPass's encrypted vault.
