VCF is parsed into rows and columns first. These settings control that extracted table and how the output CSV is written—not the source file syntax.
Map each vCard property to a column label for csv.
For TEL, EMAIL, and ADR: use Separate columns for one column per type, or turn it off and pick a Combine separator to merge values of the same type into one column.
vCard 2.1, 3.0, and 4.0 are accepted when the file is structurally valid (BEGIN/END, VERSION per card).

From vCard to CSV in four moves
Paste vCard text or upload the calendar/contact file.
Scan FN/TEL/EMAIL cards; folded lines must follow vCard wrapping rules.
Use mapping or options on this page so each vCard field lands in the correct CSV shape.
Convert, then copy or download UTF-8 CSV for spreadsheets or pipelines.
Before you convert
- Photos and binary fields may be omitted when targeting tabular formats.
- CSV loses rich typing—dates become text unless the next tool re-coerces.
- Keep a copy of the original vCard as the audit trail after you ship CSV.
Choose the right output
When CSV is the right output
- You are promoting vCard into CSV because the next hop names that format in its contract or runbook.
- Downstream asked explicitly for CSV while editors still live in vCard.
- You need a deterministic export for CI, legal, or partner review—not a live sync.
- The receiving system has a documented CSV ingest path (template, parser, or app import).
When another format fits better
- Programs expect nested objects or arrays—use JSON or XML instead of flattening too early.
- You need executable INSERT/MERGE with keys—generate SQL rather than stopping at CSV.
- Recipients want typed Excel features immediately—ship XLSX, not plain CSV.
- Always-on replication belongs in APIs or streams, not repeated manual CSV drops.
Continue with other formats
APIs, fixtures, and browser-native trees instead of CSV.
Executable load scripts instead of CSV.
Print-ready snapshots instead of CSV.
CMS and static web tables instead of CSV.
Typed spreadsheet review instead of CSV.
- Paste vCard content or upload a compatible file.
- Review detected columns, mappings, and optional limits before conversion.
- Convert to CSV, preview when the page supports it, then download the result.

Questions before converting
1. What is vCard to CSV conversion on ConversionTab?
vCard to CSV conversion on ConversionTab allows you to convert vCard (vCard) files or vCard text strings into CSV (Comma-Separated Values) format.
2. How do I provide my vCard data for conversion?
You can input your vCard data in two ways:
- Text: Users can manually input VCF data as a valid string in this tab.
- File Tab: Users can upload their VCF file through the 'Drop/Browse File' feature, simplifying the process of working with existing data.
3. Which vCard versions are supported for conversion?
ConversionTab supports a range of vCard versions, including 2.1, 3.0, and 4.0 for conversion.
4. How do I initiate the conversion process?
After entering your vCard data or selecting a file, click the 'Convert' button to start the conversion process.
5. What happens if my provided data is not a valid vCard file or string?
If your input data is not a valid vCard file or string, ConversionTab will display an error message, and the conversion will not proceed.
6. What controls are available after conversion?
After conversion, you can customize the CSV output with the following options:
- Mapping: Modify column names as needed.
- Include: Select or deselect columns for the final CSV output.
- Multi-Values: Use this option for vCard fields with multiple values and types, such as Email, Phone, and Address. Customize how these values and types are presented in the output.
7. Which vCard fields support customization of multi-values and types in the output?
The following vCard fields support customization of multi-values and types in the output:
- Email: You can create separate columns for each value and its associated type within these fields (e.g., Email, Email Work, Email Personal).
- Phone: You have the option to generate separate columns for each phone number and its associated type (e.g., Phone, Phone Mobile, Phone Home).
- Address: Customize how multiple addresses are presented in the output, including types (e.g., Address, Address Billing, Address Home).
8. What is the purpose of the 'Multi-Values' checkbox?
The 'Multi-Values' checkbox is a versatile feature that allows you to tailor how vCard fields with multiple values and types are presented in the output CSV:
- Create Separate Columns: When selected, this option generates distinct columns for each value and its associated type within fields with multiple values and types. It preserves the distinctions and allows for more detailed customization.
- Combine with Separator: Alternatively, you can choose this option and select a separator from the dropdown menu. This combines multiple values with the same type into a single column, allowing you to specify how to separate these values while preserving the type information. This option applies when multiple values with the same type are found.
This dynamic customization feature is located in the output section and directly influences the columns within the resulting CSV.
9. Which separators can I use for combining multiple values?
You can choose from the following separators:
- Comma
- Tab
- Semi Colon (;)
- Space
- Colon (:)
- Bar (|)
10. Is there an option to see a sample vCard before conversion?
Yes, you can click the 'Example' button to view a sample vCard in the text area to understand the conversion process.
11. How can I clear the output and start over?
To clear the output and begin a new conversion, simply click the 'Clear' button.
