How to convert CSV to XLSX

- Convert it to .XLSX in a few seconds.
- Download your new .XLSX file.
What to expect
- Wrong delimiter or encoding at import puts all data in one column or shows garbled text - always verify the import dialog settings before saving.
- In many European locales the default CSV separator is a semicolon, not a comma; pick the correct separator in the import wizard.
- Excel silently truncates
CSVfiles with more than 1,048,576 rows; split very large files before converting.
