Unix Timestamp Converter
Convert between Unix timestamps and human-readable dates
What is Unix Timestamp Converter?
Unix Timestamp Converter translates between human-readable dates and Unix epoch time — the number of seconds (or milliseconds) elapsed since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC. Unix timestamps are the standard time representation in databases, APIs, and logs.
When to use this tool
- Debugging API responses that return epoch timestamps
- Converting database timestamps to readable dates
- Working with logs that use Unix time
- Understanding expiration times in tokens and certificates
- Cross-system time synchronization
How it works
Converts dates to seconds since the Unix epoch (Jan 1, 1970 UTC) by dividing the JavaScript Date.getTime() value by 1000. Reverse conversion multiplies the timestamp by 1000 and creates a new Date object.
