Base64 to Image Converter
Decode a Base64 string back to a viewable and downloadable image file.
How to Decode Base64 to Image
If you have a Base64-encoded image string (often starting with "data:image/jpeg;base64," or similar), our tool decodes it back to a viewable and downloadable image file in seconds.
Common Sources of Base64 Image Strings
- API responses that include image data
- HTML source code with embedded images
- CSS files with data URI background images
- JSON configuration files with image data
- Debugging tools showing image data
Prefix Handling
You can paste the string with or without the data URI prefix. Both formats are accepted:
- With prefix:
data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQ... - Without prefix:
/9j/4AAQ...
Frequently Asked Questions
The tool will show an error message. Make sure you've copied the complete Base64 string without any line breaks or extra characters. Base64 strings only contain A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /, and = padding characters.
The output format matches the original image format encoded in the data URI. If no MIME type is specified, PNG is used as default.
