How to Type ť (T with caron) on Excel

Published June 24, 2026, 2 min read

Need ť on Excel for a name, an address or a word in another language? You do not have to copy it from a website every time. The fastest method is =UNICHAR(357), and there are a few backups below for when that one is not available.

ť on Excel: =UNICHAR(357)

Ť on Excel: =UNICHAR(356)

Or copy it:

Method 1: UNICHAR formula

Type =UNICHAR(357) in a cell to get ť. To check a letter, =UNICODE("ť") returns 357. Both work in Excel 2013 and later and in Google Sheets.

Method 2: Keyboard methods inside a cell

Double-click the cell, then use Insert → Symbol (Unicode hex 0165) on Windows or Unicode Hex Input (Option + 0165) on a Mac.

Method 3: Find and replace accented text

Use =SUBSTITUTE(A1,"ť","t") to strip this accent from a column, for example when cleaning names for an email system that does not accept accents.

About the letter ť

ť is Unicode U+0165, named LATIN SMALL LETTER T WITH CARON. It is used in Czech and Slovak. A small v above a letter, called háček in Czech and kvačica in Croatian. It softens consonants (č, š, ž, ř) and marks the third tone in Pinyin (ǎ, ǐ). See the ť character page for every code and shortcut.

Troubleshooting

UNICHAR is not available in Excel 2010 and earlier.
CSV files saved as plain "CSV" may lose accents. Save as "CSV UTF-8".
If accents show as question marks after import, set the file origin to 65001: Unicode (UTF-8) in the import wizard.
