How to Convert VCF/vCard to CSV

VCF (Virtual Contact File), also known as vCard, is the standard file format for storing contact information. It's used by virtually every contact management system, including Apple Contacts, Google Contacts, Microsoft Outlook, and smartphone address books. A single VCF file can contain one contact or hundreds of contacts, each with information like name, email addresses, phone numbers, physical addresses, and organization details.

While VCF files are great for transferring contacts between devices and applications, they aren't easy to open or edit directly. Our VCF to CSV converter parses your contact file entirely in your browser and displays all contacts in a clean, readable table. You can then export the data as a CSV file that opens perfectly in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, and other spreadsheet applications. The CSV is exported with a UTF-8 BOM (Byte Order Mark) to ensure special characters and international names display correctly in Excel.

This tool is ideal for migrating contacts between platforms, creating mailing lists, auditing contact data, or simply viewing the contents of a VCF file without importing it into your address book.

The conversion is instant for most VCF files, even those containing hundreds of contacts. Since all processing happens locally in your browser, your contact data — including names, phone numbers, and email addresses — never leaves your device.

Will the CSV file open correctly in Excel?
Yes! The CSV file is exported with UTF-8 encoding and a BOM (Byte Order Mark), which ensures Microsoft Excel correctly recognizes the character encoding.

On iPhone, go to Contacts, select a contact, tap 'Share Contact', and choose to save or send the VCF file. For all contacts, use iCloud.com.
