About this tool
Unix time counts elapsed time from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z. APIs commonly use seconds while JavaScript dates use milliseconds. A timestamp identifies an instant; UTC and your browser’s local timezone are different representations of that same instant.
How to use it
- Choose timestamp-to-date or date-to-timestamp.
- For numeric input, explicitly select seconds or milliseconds. For dates, include a timezone offset when the instant must be unambiguous.
- Convert and compare the ISO, UTC and local representations.
Example
1704067200 seconds equals 2024-01-01T00:00:00.000Z; the millisecond form is 1704067200000.
