CSV to VCF Converter (Excel Contacts to vCard)
Turn a CSV or Excel contact list into a vCard (.vcf) file for iPhone, Android, Google or Outlook. Columns are matched automatically; files stay on your device.
Moving a contact list from Excel or a CRM to a phone means converting rows into vCards. Upload a CSV or Excel file (or paste the cells) and this converter matches the columns — Name, First/Last Name, Mobile, Phone, E-mail, Company, Address, Birthday, Notes, including Google and Outlook export headers and common Korean headers such as 성, 이름 and 휴대폰 — and writes a standards-compliant .vcf file that iPhone, Android, Google Contacts and Outlook can import. Nothing is uploaded.
How to use this tool
- Choose the CSV or Excel file, or paste the table with its header row.
- Pick vCard 3.0 (safest) or 4.0, and one file for all contacts or one per contact.
- Press Calculate and check the Column matching table; add an override line if a column was missed.
- Download the .vcf and open it on your phone or import it into your contacts app.
Formula
one table row → BEGIN:VCARD … END:VCARD
Commas, semicolons, backslashes and line breaks in values are escaped as RFC 6350 requires (\, \; \\ \n), and lines longer than 75 bytes are folded without splitting multi-byte characters. Version 3.0 always includes the N (name) field because it is mandatory there.
Example
The row Jane, Doe, +1 555 0100, jane@example.com, "Acme, Inc." under the headers First Name, Last Name, Mobile Phone, E-mail Address and Company becomes a vCard 3.0 with FN:Jane Doe, N:Doe;Jane;;;, ORG:Acme\, Inc. (the comma escaped), TEL;TYPE=CELL:+1 555 0100 and EMAIL;TYPE=INTERNET:jane@example.com.
Frequently asked questions
Which vCard version should I choose?
Version 3.0 is read by every phone and contacts app. Choose 4.0 only if the receiving system asks for it.
My phone numbers lost their leading zero.
Excel stores 010-… or 0151… typed without separators as numbers and drops the 0. Format the column as Text in Excel before exporting; the converter warns when numbers look affected.
Korean names come out garbled.
CSV files saved by Korean Excel are usually in CP949 (EUC-KR). Automatic detection handles that; if not, choose the Korean encoding.
Are my contacts uploaded?
No. The file is read and converted entirely in your browser.
