How to fix special character issues in CSV to vCard export?

[norabarlow]

This problem usually comes from wrong file encoding. When your CSV is not saved in the right format, special characters like accents or symbols get corrupted during conversion.

Here’s how to fix it:

• Open the CSV file in Excel or Notepad
• Save it as UTF-8 encoding
• Check fields like name and address for unsupported symbols
• Use vCard version 3.0 or 4.0 during export for better compatibility

This process usually works better for a small contact list and a single file, but if you are looking for an error-free solution, in my opinion, you can try the user-trusted TrustVare CSV to vCard Converter Tool.
