Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp (also known as Unix epoch time) is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap seconds. It is a standard way to represent a point in time across systems.

What is the difference between seconds and milliseconds?

Unix timestamps are traditionally in seconds (10 digits around 2024). JavaScript and many APIs use milliseconds (13 digits). This tool auto-detects: values above 1e12 are treated as milliseconds.

Why does my timestamp show a different date in my timezone?

A Unix timestamp represents an absolute moment in time. The displayed date changes based on timezone offset. Use the timezone selector to view the timestamp in UTC or your local timezone.
