Timestamp Converter

Convert Unix timestamps to readable dates and back, in both seconds and milliseconds.

About the Timestamp Converter

A Unix timestamp counts the seconds since 1 January 1970 UTC and is used throughout software and databases. This converter translates between timestamps and human-readable dates in both directions.

It auto-detects seconds versus milliseconds and shows the local time, UTC and ISO 8601 formats — all processed in your browser.

How to use the Timestamp Converter

  1. Choose Timestamp → Date or Date → Timestamp.
  2. Enter your value.
  3. Click Convert to see the result in multiple formats.

How the calculation works

Date = new Date(timestamp × 1000) · Timestamp = Date.getTime() ÷ 1000

Example

The timestamp 1750000000 corresponds to 15 June 2025, 14:26 UTC.
