How to convert CSV to TSV

  1. Choose UTF-8 CSV files up to 10 MB.
  2. Review the conversion report for changed or unsupported values.
  3. Download the TSV result, or save the batch as a ZIP.

Where this file comes from

Spreadsheet and database CSV exports use commas between columns.

What changes in the conversion

Commas inside cells stay intact. Tabs, quotes and newlines inside cells are quoted in the TSV output. Row order and header text are preserved.

Size limits and browser notes

Large or deeply nested documents may exceed browser memory. Use files up to 10 MB. Invalid input is rejected without including its contents in errors.

FAQ

What happens to commas inside cells?

They remain literal commas. Only column separators change, using a parser that understands quoted cells.

Does this work offline?

Conversion runs locally after the converter and required libraries have loaded. Files are not uploaded.

What encoding is supported?

UTF-8, with or without a byte-order mark. Export legacy encodings as UTF-8 first.
