What is a Unix Timestamp?
A Unix timestamp (also called epoch time) is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 at 00:00:00 UTC — known as the Unix epoch. It is a widely used system for tracking time in software development, databases, and APIs.
Our free Unix timestamp converter lets you instantly convert any Unix epoch time to a human-readable date and time string, or convert a date back to its Unix timestamp equivalent. Toggle between UTC and your local timezone for flexible date formatting.
