vCard Converter
Convert contacts between .vcf vCard files and CSV.
Contacts Between Phones And Spreadsheets
A .vcf file is how iPhones, Android phones, Google Contacts and Outlook export contacts. Drop one in to see every contact in a table and download them as a CSV for Excel or Google Sheets — or as JSON with every phone number and email kept.
Going the other way, paste or drop a spreadsheet exported as CSV and its columns are recognised — name, first and last name, email, mobile, work phone, company, address — and turned into a vCard 3.0 file your phone or Google Contacts can import. vCard 2.1, 3.0 and 4.0 are all read, including the folded lines and quoted-printable accents older phones write.

Frequently asked questions
How do I open a .vcf file in Excel?
Convert it to CSV here, then open the CSV in Excel. The file includes a byte-order mark so accented names display correctly.
How do I import a CSV of contacts into my iPhone?
Convert the CSV to .vcf here, then open the .vcf on the iPhone (for example from an email or Files) and tap “Add all contacts”, or import it at icloud.com/contacts.
Which CSV columns are recognised?
Name or Full name, First/Given name, Last/Family name, any column containing Email, any containing Phone/Mobile/Cell, Company or Organization, Title, Address fields, Birthday, Website and Notes.
Are contact photos kept?
No. Photos are embedded images that CSV cannot hold, so they are counted and left out. Everything else — every phone number and email, not just the first — is kept, and the JSON export keeps each one with its type, such as work, home or mobile.
Is my contact list uploaded?
No. Parsing and conversion happen entirely in your browser.
