CSV Schema (released as an unofficial draft on 11 July 2014) is a format for describing the format of CSV files for validation. It was introduced by the National Archives (UK) as part of their efforts for digital data preservation, in particular for ensuring consistency and proper documentation of metadata to accompany archived data.

CSV Schema is not itself a CSV file, but is text-based.
