CSV to KML Converter
Comma-Separated Values (CSV) is the format used by Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, Apple Numbers, Airtable, and Notion. Keyhole Markup Language (KML) is what people sharing places with Google Earth users or importing into Google My Maps need. This free converter takes a CSV file and produces a ready-to-use .kml on the spot — everything runs in your browser, so your data never touches our server. Drop a file or paste text on the left, click convert, copy or download the result on the right.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert CSV to KML?
Open this page, paste your CSV text or drop your .csv file into the input panel, keep the dropdown set to CSV on the left and KML on the right, then click Convert. The .kml output appears on the right; copy it to your clipboard or download the file.
Is this CSV-to-KML converter free?
Yes, completely free. No signup, no watermark, no upload limits. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using open-source libraries.
Does my file get uploaded anywhere?
No. The converter is fully client-side — your CSV file is parsed by JavaScript running in your own browser tab and never leaves your computer. We have no server-side processing for these tools.
What's the difference between CSV and KML?
CSV is a flat spreadsheet format. It strips geometry down to lat/lng columns and is the universal way to move place data between tools. KML is an XML-based format from Google. It supports rich styling, folders, and 3D extrusions, but it's tied to Google Earth conventions.
Can I convert KML back to CSV?
Yes — switch the dropdowns or open our /tools/kml-to-csv/ page. We support every directional pair between KML, GPX, GeoJSON, CSV, and Excel.
