What is the EMV Tag Inspector?

The EMV Tag Inspector is a free online tool that decodes EMV chip card data encoded in BER-TLV (Basic Encoding Rules - Tag Length Value) format.

🛠️ How to Use
  1. Paste your hexadecimal EMV TLV data into the input field.
  2. Click "Decode" to parse the BER-TLV structure.
  3. Review the tree view showing tag numbers, names, lengths, and decoded values.
  4. Expand constructed tags to see nested child TLV objects.
