VCF to CSV Converter (vCard Contacts to Excel)

Phones and address books export contacts as vCard (.vcf) files, but spreadsheets, CRMs and mail-merge tools want CSV. This converter reads vCard 2.1, 3.0 and 4.0 — folded lines, quoted-printable text, escaped commas and semicolons, Apple labels and legacy encodings such as Korean EUC-KR — and writes one row per contact with columns for Excel, Google Contacts or Outlook. Files are read in your browser and never uploaded.

How to use this tool

1. Choose one or more .vcf files, or paste vCard text.
2. Pick the column layout: Generic for Excel, or the Google Contacts or Outlook import format.
3. Keep the UTF-8 BOM ticked if you will open the file in Excel.
4. Press Calculate, check the preview table and download the CSV.

Formula

one BEGIN:VCARD … END:VCARD block → one CSV row

N gives last, first and middle names, prefix and suffix; ORG gives company and department; TEL, EMAIL and ADR are sorted into columns by their TYPE (cell, work, home, fax). The CSV follows RFC 4180: values containing the separator, quotes or line breaks are quoted, and lines end with CRLF.

Example

The vCard 4.0 example in RFC 6350 (Simon Perreault, Viagenie) becomes one row: First Name Simon, Last Name Perreault, Suffix "ing. jr, M.Sc.", Organization Viagenie, Work Phone +1-418-656-9254;ext=102, Mobile Phone +1-418-262-6501 (its TYPE includes cell), City Quebec, Postal Code G1V 2M2 and Birthday --02-03 (a birthday without a year).
