The above answer seems good  But another way of doing this is adding the auto commit option along with the db connect  This automatically commits every other operations performed in the db  avoiding the use of mentioning sql commit   every time     mydb   MySQLdb connect host  localhost           user  root           passwd             db  mydb  autocommit true

Fastest way is to use MySQL bulk loader by  quot load data infile quot  statement  It is the fastest way by far than any way you can come up with in Python  If you have to use Python  you can call statement  quot load data infile quot  from Python itself

I think you have to do mydb commit   all the insert into   Something like this  import csv import MySQLdb  mydb   MySQLdb connect host  localhost       user  root       passwd         db  mydb   cursor   mydb cursor    csv data   csv reader file  students csv    for row in csv data       cursor execute  INSERT INTO testcsv names              classes  mark                 VALUES   s     s     s                row   close the connection to the database  mydb commit   cursor close   print  Done

If you do not have the pandas and sqlalchemy libraries  import using pip  pip install pandas pip install sqlalchemy   We can use pandas and sqlalchemy to directly insert into the database  import csv import pandas as pd from sqlalchemy import create engine  types  engine   create engine  mysql   root  Enter password here  localhost  Enter Databse name here      enter your password and database names here  df   pd read csv  Excel file name csv  sep     quotechar      encoding  utf8     Replace Excel file name with your excel sheet name df to sql  Table name  con engine index False if exists  append     Replace Table name with your sql table name
