Do you need CSVT files along your CSV files?
You might need csvt files along your CSV files to tell QGIS where it should find the geometry. The plugin might use Add Vector layer in the background, not Add delimited text which does some educated guess on the geometry columns.

Can You import GIS data into an Excel spreadsheet?
Many times the GIS data comes in a table or an Excel spreadsheet. Also, if you have a list lat/long coordinates, you can easily import this data in your GIS project. We will be importing a text file of earthquake data to QGIS. NOAA’s National Geophysical Data Center produces a great dataset of all significant earthquakes since 2150 BC.
Why are Erros missing in a CSV file?
Latitude specifies the north-south position of a point and hence it is a Y coordinate. Similarly Longitude specifies the east-west position of a point and it is a X coordinate. You may see some errors displayed in the next dialog. The erros in this file are mainly due to missing X or Y fields.
What do I need to import from a CSV file?
My GPS outputs co-ordinates as decimal latitude and longitude, but increased by a factor of 100 – so 23.456789 latitude would show as 2300.456789. So when I import from a csv file I need to divide the lat and long columns by 100.
