How to Import Gmail Contacts to iCloud without creating duplicates?

To import Gmail contacts to iCloud without creating duplicates, the key is to clean and control the data before and during the import process.

First, open Google Contacts and merge or remove duplicate contacts using Google’s built-in Merge & fix option. After that, export your contacts in vCard (.vcf) format and import the file into iCloud Contacts through iCloud.com. This helps reduce duplicate entries during the transfer.

If you are importing a large number of contacts or syncing regularly, using a tool like MailConverterTools Gmail Backup Tool can be helpful. It offers an option to exclude similar contacts before importing, ensuring that Gmail contacts are moved to iCloud without duplication. By cleaning contacts beforehand or using duplicate-removal features, you can safely import Gmail contacts to iCloud while keeping your contact list organized and duplicate-free.
