Convert CSV to vCard on Mac

Need a .vcf file from a spreadsheet? Importer for Contacts is a reliable CSV to vCard converter for the Mac: load your CSV, map the columns and get a clean vCard you can import anywhere – Apple Contacts, iCloud, Outlook or any service that accepts vCards. No subscription, everything stays on your Mac.

How to convert CSV to vCard

  1. Open Importer for Contacts and add your CSV file.
  2. Confirm the character encoding in the interactive preview, then map each column to a contact field.
  3. Choose vCard (.vcf) as the output.
  4. Save the vCard – ready to import into Apple Contacts, iCloud or any other contact app.

A vCard you can use anywhere

The resulting .vcf works with Apple Contacts, iCloud, Outlook, Google and most webmail services, so you're not locked into one app.

Handles the messy CSVs

Unusual delimiters, line breaks inside fields and tricky encodings are dealt with properly – the kind of files the native Contacts importer simply refuses.

Keeps the labels and extra fields

Multiple phone numbers, custom labels and addresses are preserved in the vCard. You decide what maps where instead of accepting whatever a basic converter gives you.
