Safari separates the Reading List from regular bookmarks, which makes exporting it slightly tricky on macOS.

How to Export Safari Reading List

On macOS Sonoma and earlier, File → Export → Bookmarks creates an HTML file containing your reading list folder. On macOS Sequoia, use File → Export Browsing Data to File.

You can also use Marqly’s free CSV to Bookmarks HTML converter to format your reading links for any browser or bookmark manager.
