Timestamp converter

Convert UNIX timestamps to readable date and time or vice versa.

In short

Convert between UNIX timestamps and human-readable date and time formats.

What Is Timestamp Converter?

Timestamp Converter converts UNIX timestamps — the number of seconds since 1 January 1970 — to readable date and time strings, and converts date strings back to UNIX timestamps.

Where UNIX Timestamps Are Used

UNIX timestamps appear in server logs, database records, API responses, JWT tokens, and programming language time functions. Converting them to readable dates is a common task when debugging or inspecting data.

Best For

  • Developers reading timestamps from logs and API responses
  • Backend engineers converting dates for database storage
  • QA teams verifying date values in application output
  • Anyone inspecting a UNIX timestamp in a file or record

Limitations of this tool

  • Results are shown in UTC. Timezone conversion is not applied automatically.

A UNIX timestamp is the number of seconds (or milliseconds) elapsed since 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970. It is a universal, timezone-independent way to store time.
Does it support milliseconds?
Yes. Enter a 13-digit number for a millisecond-precision UNIX timestamp. 10-digit numbers are interpreted as seconds.
Are the results shown in UTC or local time?
Results are shown in UTC. Convert to local time by adjusting for your timezone offset.
