Manipulating contacts data is very easy using xls or xlsx formats. These filetypes can be opened almost on any computer. But some desktop or mobile applications (on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android or iPhone) only allow importing contacts data from Vcard i.e. vcf format. That’s why it is very important to convert Excel to vcf.

It is a file format that is used to store contact information like name, phone number, email address, home address and many more things. The structure of the vcf file looks like this:

BEGIN:VCARD

FN:John Snow
TEL;TYPE=CELL;TYPE=PREF:123456789
END:VCARD
