What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC (the Unix epoch). It is timezone-independent and widely used in programming and databases.

Why does my timestamp have 13 digits?

A 13-digit timestamp is milliseconds since the epoch (used in JavaScript's Date.now()). Divide by 1000 to get seconds. The tool accepts second-based (10-digit) timestamps.

How do I convert a date to a Unix timestamp?

Switch to the 'Date → Timestamp' tab, select a date and time, and the Unix timestamp (in both seconds and milliseconds) is calculated instantly.

What timezone is used?

UTC results are always shown in UTC. 'Local' results use your browser's configured timezone. ISO 8601 output includes the UTC offset (Z for UTC).

What is the maximum Unix timestamp?

A 32-bit signed integer holds timestamps up to January 19, 2038 (the Y2038 problem). Modern 64-bit systems handle timestamps far beyond that.
