What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp (epoch time) counts the seconds since 1 January 1970 00:00:00 UTC. Databases, APIs, logs and programming languages use it because it is a single, timezone-free number.

For example, 1700000000 is 14 November 2023 22:13:20 UTC. Timestamps with 13 digits are usually in milliseconds.

Frequently asked questions

Is the timestamp in UTC?

Yes. Unix time is always counted in UTC; local time depends on your time zone (Bangladesh is UTC+6, for example).

Why does my timestamp have 13 digits?

It is in milliseconds; divide by 1,000 for seconds.

What is the year 2038 problem?

Old 32-bit systems cannot store timestamps after 19 January 2038; modern 64-bit systems are not affected.
