Convert MyHeritage to 23andMe format
Drop your MyHeritage raw data export below and download it in 23andMe format. Everything runs in your browser — no byte of your DNA leaves this device. The tool rewrites the file layout and nothing else.

or choose it from your device
Accepts the original .txt or .csv exports from 23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHeritage and FamilyTreeDNA. Unzip a .zip first.
Private by construction: the file is read and rewritten locally with your browser's File API. There is no upload button and no network call — you can disconnect from the internet before choosing the file. Other online converters process your DNA on their server; this one cannot.
What actually changes from MyHeritage to 23andMe
These two files describe the same genotypes in different layouts. The conversion rewrites exactly this:
- The layout changes from a comma-separated .csv file to a tab-separated .txt file, with the 23andMe column header.
What never changes: your rsIDs, positions, genotype letters and genome build. This is a format conversion — not a liftover, not imputation, not a "chip conversion".
| MyHeritage | 23andMe | |
|---|---|---|
| File extension | .csv | .txt |
| Column separator | comma | tab |
| Header row | "RSID","CHROMOSOME","POSITION","RESULT" | # rsid ⇥ chromosome ⇥ position ⇥ genotype |
| Chromosome naming | 1–22, X, Y, XY, MT | 1–22, X, Y, MT |
| No-call symbol | -- | -- |
Format compatibility is not platform acceptance
23andMe
23andMe does not accept raw data uploads from other companies at all. A file in 23andMe format is useful for the many third-party tools that only read that format — not for creating a 23andMe profile.
Converter questions
Is converting to 23andMe format the same as transferring my DNA to 23andMe?
No. This rewrites your file's layout; whether any platform accepts an upload is that platform's decision, made by their own importer. The acceptance note above states what is publicly known — we never promise acceptance.
Does the conversion change my genotypes?
No. Genotype letters, rsIDs and positions are carried over byte-identical. Only the representation changes — delimiter, header, chromosome naming and the no-call symbol — and every such change is counted in the report.
Why is this free, with no upload?
Because it costs us nothing to run — your browser does the work — and it is how we would want our own DNA handled. Our paid product is the analysis of what is inside the file, and it is entirely separate from this tool.
