The type object is actually string in pandas dataframe.
If you would like to retain the data as string, use df.to_excel() instead of df.to_csv. This is because when opening the CSV file, Excel will automatically convert the number data to numbers.
df1 = pd.DataFrame({'GL': [2311000200.0, 2312000600.0, 2330800100.0]})
df1.GL = df1.GL.astype('int64').astype('string')
df1.to_excel('test.xlsx', index=False)

You can force it to use the string dtype by using:
>>> df1.GL.astype("string")
df1.GL
0 2311000200.0
1 2312000600.0
2 2330800100.0
Name: GL, dtype: string
However, object dtypes are fine for most string operations. As per the docs:
For backwards-compatibility, object dtype remains the default type we infer a list of strings to

Cannot convert string to Int64 · Issue #29488 · pandas-dev/pandas
November 8, 2019 - Unlike with the other numeric data types, It doesn't seem to be possible to parse a string as Int64. A decent workaround seems to be converting first to float, but that's rather awkward.

z_as_int64 = numpy.int64(z)
It's that simple. Make sure you have a good reason, though - there are a few good reasons to do this, but most of the time, you can just use a regular int directly.

import numpy as np
z = 3
z = np.dtype('int64').type(z)
print(type(z))
outputs:
