Invalid Contact Data in vCard file - how to fix?

I am trying to import a vcard file but I keep getting an error message that I can't import it because it contains invalid contact data. Any advice? This is a vcard file I downloaded from another Apple account that I need to import.

Hi there emmaksj,


If you are unable to import a vCard, are you following these steps from Import or export a vCard in Contacts on iCloud.com?

1. In Contacts on iCloud.com, click the Show Actions Menu pop-up button in the sidebar, then choose Import vCard.
2. Select a vCard to import.


If so and this continues, are you following the ‘Export a vCard’ section of that article to create the vCard? 


If this occurs with every exported vCard, then we would recommend reaching out to Apple Support to get the best assistance going forward.

Cheers!
