How to convert an Excel file to vCard (.vcf)

Convert Excel to vCard in three steps

Phones and Outlook read vCard (.vcf) files, not spreadsheets. The conversion takes under a minute and you can check every card before downloading.

1. Open the Excel to contacts converter and drop in your .xlsx, .xls or .csv file.
2. Review the column mapping — name, phone, email, company and address are matched automatically, and you can change any of them.
3. Pick iPhone or Android as the output and tap Download. Open the .vcf on the phone to add the contacts.

Prepare the spreadsheet first

A header row with clear labels (First name, Last name, Mobile, Email, Company) gives the cleanest result. Remove merged cells, totals rows and blank spacer rows — they import as empty contacts.

If everything is in one Name column, turn on the split-names option so first and last names land in the right fields.

Several numbers or emails per person

Put each one in its own column — Mobile, Work, Home — and map them separately. Every number keeps its own label on the finished contact card, exactly like a contact saved by hand.
