Decode base64 back into an image file
Base64 image blobs show up everywhere — API responses, database exports, email HTML, and inline SVG-adjacent assets. To get the actual picture back you need to decode the payload and reassemble the binary file.
Paste either a full data URL or the raw base64. The tool detects the format from the header, or from the file's magic bytes when no header is present (JPEG, PNG, GIF, and WebP signatures are recognized), then renders the image and offers a download with the right extension.
Decoding happens in your browser tab. Nothing is sent to a server, so it is safe for customer data, internal screenshots, and anything else you would rather not hand to a random paste site.

Base64 to Image FAQ
- Can I paste base64 without the data: prefix?
- Yes. The tool sniffs the image type from the magic bytes, so raw base64 works as well as a full data URL.
- What formats can it detect?
- JPEG, PNG, GIF, and WebP are recognized from their file signatures; anything with an explicit data:image/… header works too.
- Is my base64 data sent anywhere?
- No. Decoding and previewing happen entirely in your browser tab.
- How large a base64 string can it decode?
- Multi-megabyte payloads work fine — decoding happens in memory. Very large strings (hundreds of MB) depend on your device's available RAM, since the whole image is held in the tab.
