- RFC 4180 CSV — cells with commas, quotes or newlines are quoted and escaped.
- Every table in order, separated by a blank line in the file.
- UTF-8 output that opens in Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers or a database import.
- No upload — the .docx and the CSV are handled in this tab.
Word to CSV extracts tables only. Paragraphs, headings and images are not included. If the document has no tables, the tool will say so instead of producing an empty file.
The .docx is parsed locally. Nothing is uploaded, and the CSV is generated in this tab.

The basics
What is Word to CSV conversion?
CSV is the simplest structured data format: rows of text separated by commas, with quoting rules for cells that contain punctuation. It is what spreadsheets, databases and import tools expect. Word tables are close to that shape, but they need to be extracted and normalised first.
This converter finds each table in the .docx, expands merged cells into a rectangular grid, and writes the rows as RFC 4180 CSV. Multiple tables are separated by a blank line, preserving document order.
Best for workflows like:
- • Importing a Word table into a CRM or database
- • Opening a document table in Google Sheets
- • Feeding table data into a script or data pipeline
- • Moving a price list into an e-commerce backend
- • Archiving table data in a tool-independent format
Three steps
How to convert Word to CSV
Drop the .docx
Choose a document that contains at least one table.
Check the table preview
The preview shows the extracted grid so you can confirm rows, columns and merged cells before downloading.
Download the .csv
The file is UTF-8 CSV, ready for Excel, Sheets or an import step.
What comes out
How Word tables map to CSV
The output follows the data, not the Word page appearance.
| In Word | In the CSV file | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Word table | CSV rows and columns | One record per row |
| Header row | First CSV row | Kept as text; no special styling |
| Merged cells | Expanded grid | Value in the first cell, blanks after |
| Multiple tables | Blank line between tables | Document order preserved |
| Commas in a cell | Quoted cell | RFC 4180 escaping |
| Quotes in a cell | Doubled quotes | Imports without breaking the file |
| Line breaks in a cell | Quoted multi-line cell | Stays one record |
| Paragraphs and images | Not included | This tool is tables-only |

Answers
Word to CSV FAQ
Is this Word to CSV converter free?
Yes. There is no account, watermark or per-file limit.
Is my document uploaded?
No. The .docx is unzipped and parsed inside your browser tab; nothing is uploaded or stored.
What happens if the document has no tables?
The tool stops and says so. Word to CSV extracts tables only; use Word to Text if you need the whole document as plain text.
How are commas and quotes handled?
Cells containing a comma, a double quote or a line break are wrapped in double quotes, and inner quotes are doubled. That is the RFC 4180 rule most importers expect.
Are multiple tables included?
Yes. All tables are written in document order, separated by a blank line. If your importer needs exactly one table, split the file at that blank line.
What encoding is the file?
UTF-8. Accented characters and non-Latin scripts are preserved, and Excel or Sheets will detect the encoding on import.
Can I open the CSV in Excel?
Yes. Open it directly or use Data → From Text/CSV. If your system uses a different list separator, choose comma as the delimiter.
What is the file size limit?
Up to 20 MB on desktop and 10 MB on mobile. Very large documents take longer because the whole file is parsed on your device.
