How to use the Unix Timestamp Converter
- Paste a timestamp to see the date in UTC and your local time.
- Or pick a date and time to get its timestamp.
- Copy the current timestamp from the top.
What does this tool do?
A Unix timestamp counts seconds since 00:00:00 UTC on January 1, 1970 (the “epoch”). JavaScript and many APIs use milliseconds instead, so the converter detects the unit from the number's size.
Results are shown in UTC (ISO 8601), your local time zone, and the HTTP date format.
Why use it?
- Read timestamps in logs and databases.
- Create timestamps for API requests.
- Seconds vs milliseconds detected for you.
Examples
1767225600 = 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z. 1767225600000 is the same moment in milliseconds.
