What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp (epoch time) is the number of seconds elapsed since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC. Some systems use milliseconds instead of seconds.

Common pitfalls

  • Confusing seconds vs milliseconds
  • Forgetting timezone rules when displaying local times
  • Parsing ambiguous date strings without an explicit timezone

How to use this tool

  1. Input a timestamp or a date-time string.
  2. Choose the conversion direction.
  3. Copy the converted result.
