  3. Read the date in your time zone, UTC and ISO format, plus the timestamp in seconds and milliseconds.

How it works

A Unix timestamp counts the seconds since 1 January 1970, 00:00 UTC. Numbers with 12 or more digits are treated as milliseconds, as used by JavaScript and Java.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if a timestamp is in seconds or milliseconds?

Current timestamps in seconds have 10 digits; in milliseconds they have 13. The tool detects this automatically.

Which time zone is used?

"Your local time" uses your device's time zone (IST in India). UTC and ISO 8601 are the same everywhere.

What is the year 2038 problem?

Old systems store timestamps as 32-bit numbers, which run out on 19 January 2038. Modern systems use 64-bit numbers and are not affected.
