HOW IT WORKS

Unix timestamp converter, explained.

  1. Choose seconds or milliseconds explicitly.
  2. Paste an integer timestamp to see its UTC and selected-zone time.
  3. Use a local date and time to create a timestamp in either unit.

Unix time counts elapsed seconds from 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC. JavaScript commonly uses milliseconds, while Discord uses seconds. A factor-of-1,000 unit mix-up creates a very different date. This converter supports dates from 1900 through 2100.

Can I use negative timestamps?

Yes. A negative timestamp represents a date before the Unix epoch, within the supported date range.

Does Unix time have a time zone?

The timestamp identifies a single moment. Time zones change how that moment is displayed, not the timestamp itself. Leap seconds are not modeled by this JavaScript-based converter.

Every minute, sorted.
