What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds since January 1, 1970 at 00:00:00 UTC. It is widely used in APIs, databases, logs, schedulers, and programming languages because it is compact and timezone-independent.

This converter accepts seconds or milliseconds and displays local time, UTC time, ISO format, and relative time. You can also enter a date and convert it back to a timestamp.

Seconds or milliseconds?

Most Unix timestamps are 10 digits in seconds. JavaScript timestamps are usually 13 digits in milliseconds.

Why does local time differ from UTC?

UTC is timezone-neutral. Local time is adjusted by your browser timezone and daylight-saving rules.
