PDF Password Remover
Unlock a password-protected PDF and download an unrestricted copy. Files never leave your device — everything runs in the browser.
Note: the unlocked PDF is rebuilt from rendered pages, so text may not be selectable. Use only for PDFs you are legally allowed to modify.
What is the PDF Password Remover?
The PDF Password Remover unlocks a password-protected PDF you own: enter the password you already know, and the tool strips the encryption layer to produce an unrestricted copy you can print, copy and share. It handles standard PDF encryption up to AES-256.
This is not a cracking tool — it is for the everyday case where your own bank statement, e-ticket or bill has locked-down permissions. Decryption happens in your browser, so the password never leaves your device.
How to use the PDF Password Remover
- 1Upload the locked PDF you own.
- 2Type the password you already know for the file.
- 3Click "Remove password" — decryption runs in your browser.
- 4Download the unrestricted PDF.
Key features

Important notes
- Only use this on PDFs you own or have permission to modify — removing protection from someone else's document may be against the rules or the law.
- This removes the password/permissions layer so the file opens freely; it cannot recover a password you have forgotten or decrypt a file you cannot already open.
- The PDF is unlocked in your browser and is not stored on our servers.
