Date and time conversion

Timestamp Converter

Convert Unix timestamps to readable UTC, browser-local and fixed-offset dates. Reverse-convert a local date, inspect live epoch time and compare common reference values.

Timestamp input

Unix timestamp to date

seconds / milliseconds

Date input is interpreted in your browser's local timezone. Fixed UTC offsets are display-only and do not apply daylight-saving rules.

Timestamp conversion formulas

seconds = floor(milliseconds / 1000)Divide milliseconds by 1,000 and round down to get whole Unix seconds.
milliseconds = seconds * 1000Multiply Unix seconds by 1,000 to get milliseconds.
Unix epoch = 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTCUnix time counts elapsed seconds from this instant; values before it are negative.
display time = UTC + offsetA timezone changes the displayed clock time, not the underlying timestamp.

Timestamp converter FAQ

What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds elapsed since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC, excluding leap seconds.

Why do some timestamps have 13 digits?

Modern systems often store Unix time in milliseconds. A current millisecond timestamp has 13 digits, while seconds usually have 10.

Does changing the timezone change the timestamp?

No. The timestamp identifies one instant. A timezone only changes how that instant is displayed.

How is the local date input interpreted?

The browser interprets it in your device's local timezone. Daylight-saving gaps or repeated times follow the browser's timezone rules.
