Base64 to Hexadecimal decodes a Base64-encoded string to its underlying bytes and then represents each byte as a 2-digit hexadecimal value (e.g., 48 65 6C 6C 6F). This is a common operation in debugging, cryptography, and network analysis when you need to inspect the raw bytes behind an encoded value.
How to Use Base64 to Hexadecimal
1
Paste your Base64 string into the input box.
2
Click "Convert to Hex".
3
Toggle uppercase or lowercase as needed.
4
Copy the hex output.
Common Use Cases
- Inspecting Base64-encoded cryptographic hashes or keys in hex format.
- Debugging encoded network payloads at the byte level.
- Comparing Base64-encoded values against known hex signatures.
Example Input and Output
Decoding "Hello" (Base64: SGVsbG8=) to hex.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Base64 and hex?
Both encode binary data as text. Hex uses 2 characters per byte (16 symbols: 0-9, A-F). Base64 uses ~1.33 characters per byte (64 symbols), making it ~25% more compact.
Can I get the output without spaces?
Currently the output uses space-separated values for readability. Copy the result and remove spaces with a text editor or the Remove Whitespace tool if you need a contiguous hex string.
