URL Encoder & Decoder

Percent-encode text for URLs, query values and forms, decode it with every malformed escape pointed out, and see a URL’s parts.

About this tool

Percent-encode text for a query value or path segment, a whole URL, HTML form data or strict RFC 3986, and decode it again. Each style is explained, so you know which characters it leaves alone.

Decoding never fails silently: a % that isn’t followed by two hex digits, or bytes that aren’t valid UTF-8, are pointed out by line and column and kept as written. Text that was encoded twice is decoded once, with a Decode again button, so nothing is decoded further than you intend.

Paste a full URL to see its parts decoded: host (including international domain names), path, every query parameter, repeats included, and the fragment.
