CSV to Excel

Turn CSVs into Excel-ready files with smart type detection and a frozen header row.

CSV is the lowest-common-denominator data format — readable by everything, but tricky in Excel because it guesses column types and often gets them wrong. Converterzilla's CSV-to-Excel converter applies smart type detection up front so numeric, date and text columns end up in the right type.

How to use CSV to Excel in your browser

  1. Upload your CSV. Drop a .csv file. We auto-detect delimiter (comma, semicolon, tab) and quoting style.
  2. Review type inference. Preview each column with detected type — override if needed before export.
  3. Download the Excel file. Save .xlsx with proper types, a frozen header row, and auto-fit column widths.
