Save an Excel list of names and numbers as a .vcf that a phone imports in one go
Processed in your browser. Nothing is uploaded. Checked against sources on 17 Oct 2026.A phone cannot import an Excel file, but every phone imports a .vcf. Pick the .xlsx or a CSV saved from it: the name, phone and email columns are found from their headings, Google Contacts and Outlook exports included, and you can change any column before saving. Several numbers in one cell are split, and commas or line breaks in a note survive. Nothing is uploaded.

Phones import contacts from a .vcf file, not from a spreadsheet. This page turns the sheet into that file: one vCard per row, all in one download.
Google Contacts' "Phone 1 - Label" columns type the number beside them, and its "555-0100 ::: 555-0101" cells become two numbers. Any column can be changed or left out before saving.
Which version. vCard 3.0 is the default because every phone and service still reads it; 4.0 is one tap away.
The rest of the article, and all 6 questions about CSV to VCF Converter, are on the CSV to VCF Converter page.
Select the .csv or .xlsx file on CSV to VCF Converter. The name, phone and email columns are recognised from the headers and a preview of the first contacts appears. Press Download and one .vcf file saves with every contact, ready to open on a phone or import into Google Contacts.
Copy the .vcf to the phone, open the Contacts app, then Fix and manage, then Import from file, and pick it. Opening the file from the Downloads folder also offers Contacts. Every contact in the file is added in one go, with its numbers, emails and addresses.
Yes. Each phone column becomes its own number, typed Mobile, Home, Work or Fax from its header, and a cell holding several numbers separated by ::: (as Google Contacts writes them) is split. Duplicate numbers in a row are written once.
No. The sheet is read by your own browser and the vCard file is written on your device. Names, numbers and addresses of the people in your list never reach a server, and nothing remains once the tab is closed.
