About the Unix Time Converter

Unix time counts the seconds since January 1, 1970 UTC. This converter turns a timestamp into readable local time, UTC, and relative time, and converts a chosen date back into a timestamp. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

Common use cases

  • Debugging logs: read timestamps from APIs and databases.
  • Scheduling: compute a timestamp for a specific date and time.
  • Data checks: confirm a record’s date or day of year.

How it works

  1. Enter a timestamp, or click Now for the current time.
  2. Or pick a date and time and convert it to a timestamp.
  3. Copy any formatted value you need.
