About Unix Timestamps
Unix timestamps represent the number of seconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC (the Unix Epoch). This universal standard is used across programming languages, databases, and systems worldwide.
Quick Conversion Tips:
- 10 digits = seconds (use directly)
- 13 digits = milliseconds (divide by 1000)
- Discord only accepts seconds format
- Negative values represent dates before 1970
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Discord timestamps
What is a Unix timestamp and how does it work?
A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC (the Unix Epoch). It's a universal way to represent dates and times across different systems and programming languages. Discord uses Unix timestamps in its timestamp codes.
How do I convert Unix timestamp to Discord format?
Enter your Unix timestamp in seconds above, and our converter generates all Discord timestamp formats (<t:UNIX:F>, <t:UNIX:R>, etc.). You can then copy and paste these codes directly into Discord messages.
What's the difference between Unix seconds and milliseconds?
Unix timestamps are typically in seconds (10 digits), but some systems use milliseconds (13 digits). If your timestamp has 13 digits, divide by 1000 first. Discord timestamp codes require seconds, not milliseconds.
Where do I find Unix timestamps to convert?
Unix timestamps come from databases, APIs, log files, programming languages, and various tools. Common sources include server logs, database exports, API responses, and programming applications that generate epoch time.
Can I convert Discord timestamps back to Unix time?
Yes! If you have a Discord timestamp code like <t:1640995200:F>, the number (1640995200) is the Unix timestamp in seconds. You can use that number with any Unix timestamp converter or in programming.
What are Unix timestamps used for in Discord?
Unix timestamps power Discord's dynamic timestamp feature. When you paste <t:UNIX:FORMAT> codes in Discord, they display dates and times that automatically adjust to each user's local timezone and update relative times in real-time.
