How to use the URL encoder and decoder

Choose encode or decode, enter your text in the input box, and read the result below. The copy button copies the result when browser clipboard access is available.

URL component encoding

This tool encodes a URL component using percent encoding, so reserved characters such as slashes, question marks and ampersands are encoded too. Use it for a query parameter value or a single URL path component—not for an entire URL that must retain its structural separators.

Encoding and decoding examples

  • “hello world” encodes as “hello%20world”.
  • “a&b” encodes as “a%26b”.
  • “%E2%9C%93” decodes as “✓”.
