How to Export Opera Bookmarks to HTML in 2027 (Step by Step)

Exporting your bookmarks from Opera, Opera One, or Opera GX takes less than thirty seconds. Whether you are migrating to a dedicated bookmark manager like Marqly, switching to another browser, or creating a secure offline backup, Opera exports directly to universal Netscape Bookmark HTML.

Step 1: Open Opera’s Bookmark Manager

You can access the full bookmark manager using any of these methods:

• Press Ctrl + Shift + B on Windows or Linux (Cmd + Option + B on macOS).
• Click the Bookmarks heart icon in Opera’s left sidebar.
• Type opera://bookmarks into the address bar and press Enter.

This brings up the full two-pane bookmark management interface where your Bookmarks Bar, Speed Dial entries, and custom folders live.

Step 2: Export Bookmarks to HTML

1. In the bottom-left corner of the Bookmarks manager page, look for the Export bookmarks button.
2. In Opera GX, if the button is collapsed, scroll down the left sidebar within the bookmarks tab.
3. Click Export bookmarks.
4. Choose a destination folder on your computer and save the file (it will be named something like bookmarks_date.html).

What is Inside the Opera Export?

Opera writes standard Netscape Bookmark HTML. This file contains:

• All folder hierarchies (Speed Dial, Bookmarks bar, and custom folders).
• Page titles, URLs, and timestamps (ADD_DATE).
• Clean HTML links ready to be imported into Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Marqly.

Because it adheres to the standard Netscape format, you can open this file in any text editor or drag it into any web browser to view your clickable bookmarks.

Importing into Marqly

To keep your Opera bookmarks organized with tags, collections, and instant full-text search, simply head to Marqly, click Import, and select your exported Opera HTML file. All your folders and links will be neatly indexed immediately without duplicate entries or broken structures.
