EMV TLV Parser

Decode an EMVCo tag-length-value payload into a readable tree. Same format used by PIX, QRIS, PromptPay, DuitNow, VietQR, and BharatQR.

Private: Parsing runs entirely in your browser. The QR payload never leaves your device — useful for production data, not just synthetic test values.

Paste an EMVCo TLV payload above to decode it.

The parser recovered from some issues:

  • Input is empty

EMVCo merchant-presented QR codes — the same document used for PIX, QRIS, PromptPay, DuitNow, VietQR, BharatQR, and most national QR-payment schemes — encode every field as a TLV triple: 2 hex digits of tag, 2 hex digits of length, then the value. Tags can nest, and a high bit on the first tag digit marks a constructed (nested) tag like 26 or 62.

This parser walks the payload character by character and returns a readable tree. Use it to debug a payment integrator, sanity-check a QR you scanned, or reverse-engineer an unknown merchant payload. Parsing happens entirely in your browser — useful for production data, not just synthetic test values.

How to use it

  1. Paste a hex or ASCII payload

    Any string of EMVCo TLV data. Examples are provided.

  2. Read the decoded tree

    Each tag is shown with its length, its value, and any nested children.

  3. Copy or download the result

    Save the parsed tree as JSON for later comparison.
