Unix Timestamp FAQ

What is Unix Timestamp?

A Unix timestamp (also known as POSIX time or Epoch time) is a system for describing a point in time. It is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970, at 00:00:00 UTC, not counting leap seconds.

Is this tool using UTC or local time?

Unix timestamps are always in UTC. However, when we convert a timestamp to a readable date, we show both the UTC string and your browser's local time string for convenience.

Does this support milliseconds?

Standard Unix timestamps are in seconds. If you have a 13-digit timestamp, it is likely in milliseconds. Our converter expects 10-digit second-based timestamps, but you can usually just divide your millisecond timestamp by 1000.

What happens after the Year 2038?

The 'Year 2038 problem' affects 32-bit systems where the timestamp will overflow. Modern 64-bit systems (like the one running this browser) can handle timestamps far beyond that date without issue.
