What the CSV to TSV Converter Tool does:

This converter processes each row in your CSV and replaces commas with tabs, ensuring every column and row is preserved. It escapes text only when needed and maintains the original layout as closely as possible. Trimmed values give you a clean, whitespace-free TSV file that’s ready for import.

Example:

Input CSV:

name,age,city
Alice,28,Paris
Bob,34,Berlin

Output TSV:

name	age	city
Alice	28	Paris
Bob	34	Berlin

Common Use Cases:

Use this tool when preparing spreadsheet exports for import into TSV-based platforms or database tools. It’s especially useful for turning flat tables into formats compatible with programming scripts, system tools, or clipboard-friendly formats for use in Excel, Google Sheets, or terminal workflows. Paste, format, export instantly.

Useful Tools & Suggestions:

If you ever need to go the other direction, TSV to CSV Converter flips your delimiter back for full compatibility. And when you’re prepping raw content before conversion, CSV Delimiter Changer helps you quickly swap commas for tabs or any other character you need.
