Convert CSV to SQLite SQL

Generate a SQLite table schema and INSERT script from CSV data for local databases, prototypes, and tests.

SQLite is a convenient local database, but loading a CSV manually is easy to get wrong. CSV to SQLite creates a table definition and escaped INSERT statements from your headers and rows.

Choose a table name, download the SQL script, and run it with the SQLite command line or a database GUI. The output is a text script rather than a binary database file, which makes it easy to inspect before execution.

For large datasets, use SQLite's native import commands or a database-specific pipeline instead of generating one statement per row.
