What does the Unix Timestamp Converter do?

A Unix timestamp counts seconds since 1 January 1970 00:00:00 UTC. Many APIs, databases and logs store times this way; JavaScript uses milliseconds. The converter detects whether you entered seconds (10 digits) or milliseconds (13 digits) and shows UTC, your local time, ISO 8601 and a relative description like “3 days ago”.

The reverse converter turns a date and time — interpreted as your local time or UTC — into seconds and milliseconds.

How to use the Unix Timestamp Converter

  1. Read or copy the live current timestamp.
  2. Paste a timestamp to see the date.
  3. Or choose a date and time to get its timestamp.
