CSV to TSV Converter
Convert comma separated CSV into tab separated values, which is the format spreadsheets accept when you paste a grid directly into cells. This tool uses a real CSV parser, so quoted fields, commas inside values and escaped double quotes are handled correctly rather than naively split on every comma. Each parsed field is joined with tabs, and any tab or newline that appears inside a value is replaced with a space so your columns stay aligned when pasted. It is exactly what you want when a CSV export will not line up in Excel or Sheets. Paste your CSV, click convert, and copy the tab separated result. Everything runs in your browser, so the data you paste is never sent anywhere or logged.
How to use CSV to TSV
- Paste your CSV data.
- Click convert to produce TSV.
