Hello, I am a little bit late to the discussion, but this type of question is a typical use case for the “Select by Location” processing tool. In your case you would import your CSV data and the countries into a QGIS project. After that you can run the “Select by Location” processing tool and define criteria like intersects, within et al. Run the tool and it will select all points from your CSV that will match the criteria, you can then go ahead and save the selection as a new layer (Shapefile, CSV or something else). Make sure to tick the “Save only selected features” though.

Removed all other layers and ran the clip again. That has worked perfectly.

Setting the CRS at the project is not enough. Set it back to the original CRS, then use the save as tool on the layer to reproject to WGS84. If you are in QGIS 3, I think you no longer need to use the same CRS on both layers.

I have plant world distribution data (lat and long) in a csv which I have as a WGS84 vector layer. I have a European shp file which is converted to WGS84. If I clip the world data layer to the Europe shp I end up with a new, but blank, vector layer.

I added this to my world map shapefile (Layer\Add Layer\Add Delimited Text layer). Some records are outside of the coastline. How can I clip this CSV data to the coastline?
