Which vCard properties become columns?

FN and N map to name columns, ORG and TITLE to organisation and job title, and EMAIL, TEL and ADR are split by TYPE into Home, Work, Mobile and Other columns. BDAY, URL and NOTE each get a column too.

How are structured addresses handled?

An ADR value is a semicolon-separated structure (PO box, extended, street, locality, region, postal code, country). The converter assembles the street, city, region, postal code and country into a single readable address string per type.

Will accented names import correctly?

Yes. Old phone exports often encode accented characters with ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE. The converter detects that label and decodes the bytes back to proper UTF-8 so names like José or Müller come through intact.

What format is the CSV in?

It is standard RFC 4180-style CSV: a header row followed by one row per contact, with any value containing a comma, quote or line break wrapped in double quotes. This imports cleanly into Excel, Google Sheets and most CRMs.

No. Parsing and CSV generation happen entirely in your browser. Your contacts never leave your device, so the tool is safe for sensitive or work address books.

vCard (VCF) to CSV Converter

A vCard stores each contact as a set of labelled properties, which is great for phones but awkward for spreadsheets and CRM import wizards that expect rows and columns. This converter flattens one or many vCards into a clean CSV: one row per contact, with consistent columns for names, organisations, the different kinds of email and phone, addresses, birthdays and notes.

How it works

The converter parses every BEGIN:VCARD … END:VCARD block and, for each property, reads its name, its TYPE parameters and its value. Several details matter for getting clean output:

Structured values. N is split into Last and First name; ADR is split into its seven components and the meaningful parts (street, city, region, postal code, country) are joined into one readable address.
Type routing. EMAIL and TEL carry TYPE parameters such as HOME, WORK and CELL. The converter routes each value into the matching column — Email (Work), Phone (Mobile), and so on — falling back to an “Other” column when no type is given.
Quoted-printable decoding. Older exports encode accented characters with ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE (for example =C3=A9 for é). When that label is present, the bytes are decoded back to UTF-8 so names display correctly.
Text unescaping. vCard escapes commas, semicolons and newlines inside values with a backslash; these are unescaped so the CSV reads naturally.

The result is serialised as standard CSV: any cell containing a comma, double quote or newline is wrapped in double quotes with internal quotes doubled, exactly as spreadsheet apps expect.

The columns

Each contact row includes: Full Name, First Name, Last Name, Organization, Title, three Email columns (Home/Work/Other), four Phone columns (Mobile/Home/Work/Other), two Address columns (Home/Work), Birthday, URL and Note. Empty cells are left blank so the layout stays aligned.

Tips

Import into Google Sheets with File → Import → Upload, or into Excel via Data → From Text/CSV. Both detect the header row automatically.
If a column looks empty for a contact that clearly has the data, check the source vCard’s TYPE labels — an email with no type lands in Email (Other) rather than Home or Work.
Everything runs locally; nothing about your contacts is uploaded.
