Import WooCommerce Products from Microsoft Excel File

Last updated on March 27, 2025

Excel provides a familiar and user-friendly interface for organizing product details such as names, prices, SKUs, stock levels, categories, and attributes. By importing directly from Excel, store owners can quickly add or update multiple products at once, reduce manual data entry, and minimize errors

To import the products from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet file, activate the plugin Product Import Export for WooCommerce. The plugin supports CSV, XML, TSV, XLS, and XLSX file formats. To import products from an XLS or XLSX file to your WooCommerce store:

  1. Go to WebToffee Import Export (Pro) > Import from your WordPress admin panel. 
  2. Choose the post type as Product.
