CSV to VCF Converter Software for vCard

by SoftOrbits

Free Trial

Turn a contact spreadsheet into vCard files for a phone, Google or a mail client, offline.

📋 Contact lists rarely begin life as cards. They sit in a hand-kept sheet, a CRM export or a Google Contacts backup, and the phone at the other end only takes vCard. CSV to VCF Converter reads that table locally on Windows, lets you say which column holds what, and writes .vcf files that a handset, Google or a mail client will import.

🔍 A contact CSV is harder to read than it looks

CSV has no fixed layout. Excel on a German or French system saves with semicolons, and an old Russian address book arrives in Windows-1251 with no byte order mark. Any street address containing a comma hides inside quote marks. Split such a file on the first comma and you get one wide column and names full of question marks. CSV to VCF Converter counts candidate separators across the opening lines, tests the bytes as UTF-8 before it tries Windows-1251, Windows-1252 or GBK, and prints the detected character set beside every file in the queue. A wrong guess gets fixed by hand before any card is written.

🧭 You decide which column feeds which field

Google writes a numbered value and type column for every phone. Outlook gives each kind of number its own heading, and a homemade sheet may simply say Tel. CSV to VCF Converter knows the common layouts and fills in the mapping on its own. The mapper then lists each column next to the vCard field it will fill, so you can reassign one, leave one out, or keep an unmatched column as an X- field.

👍 Top reasons to pick CSV to VCF Converter

  • 1️⃣ vCard 2.1 for older handsets and car kits, 3.0 or 4.0 for current phones.
  • 2️⃣ Non-Latin names in 2.1 cards encoded so an old phone shows real letters.
  • 3️⃣ One Contacts.vcf for a bulk import, or a separate card for each person.
  • 4️⃣ Card file names built from a name, an email or a counter, with _2 added on a clash.
  • 5️⃣ Several numbers typed into one cell split into separate numbers.
  • 6️⃣ Repeated rows dropped and rows with no name, phone or email skipped.
  • 7️⃣ Address parts kept in separate columns joined into one proper address.
  • 8️⃣ A picture path stored in a column turned into a photo inside the card.

⚠️ The trial stops after 5 contacts in each run and a reminder pops up each time, enough to test the mapping on your own list. A license removes that cap.

🙋 Who turns spreadsheets into contact cards

  • ✅ A person moving a contact sheet onto a new iPhone or Android phone.

  • ✅ Sales and support teams pulling leads out of a CRM export.
  • ✅ IT staff who may not send customer phone numbers to a web service.

Those who install apps from Microsoft will find it as CSV to VCF Converter Software for vCard on Windows Store.

💬 Questions asked before converting a list

❔ Is there a free online way to turn CSV into VCF?
💡 Browser converters exist, but the whole list, home numbers and birthdays included, goes to their server first. CSV to VCF Converter keeps the file on the PC.

❔ Can I do this on an iPhone?
💡 Not directly, since the program runs on Windows. Convert on the PC, send the .vcf to the phone by mail or iCloud and open it there.

❔ How do I make a VCF file from Excel?
💡 In Excel, pick CSV under Save As, add the result to the queue and look over the mapping. A semicolon file from a European Excel is recognized automatically.

❔ Why did Google Contacts stop partway through my list?
💡 Google accepts up to 3000 contacts in one import. Split a longer list, or write one card per person and bring them in by batches.
