Discord Timestamp Generator
A free Discord time converter and timestamp generator. Create dynamic timestamps that automatically adjust to each member's local timezone. Pick a date, copy the code, paste it into any message or embed.
How Discord Timestamps Work
What are Discord timestamps?
Discord turns a Unix timestamp into a dynamic time display that automatically adjusts to each viewer's local timezone. You paste a code like <t:1712345678:F> into a message, and Discord renders it in the reader's own timezone. No manual timezone conversion needed.
How do I use Discord timestamps?
The easiest way to create a Discord timestamp is to use the Discordify timestamp generator above. Pick your date and time, choose a format style, and click Copy code. Paste the result into any Discord message and it automatically displays in each viewer's local timezone.
You can also type the syntax manually using <t:UNIX:S>, but the generator eliminates the guesswork by converting your exact date and time into the correct Unix seconds. It also shows a live preview of how each format style will look before you paste it into Discord.

All seven format styles
Each style letter produces a different display. Mix and match for event announcements, countdowns, and scheduled messages:
- Short Time (
t): 4:20 PM - Long Time (
T): 4:20:30 PM - Short Date (
d): 07/07/2026 - Long Date (
D): July 7, 2026 - Short Date/Time (
f): July 7, 2026 4:20 PM - Full Date/Time (
F): Tuesday, July 7, 2026 4:20 PM - Relative (
R): "in 2 hours" or "3 days ago"
Do timestamps work across timezones?
Yes. That's the whole point. Unix timestamps are timezone-agnostic, and Discord converts them to each viewer's local time. A single timestamp works for everyone in your server, no matter where they are.
Common use cases
Use timestamps for event scheduling, raid start times, giveaway deadlines, countdowns, release dates, or any announcement where getting the time right matters. The Relative format (R) is especially useful for countdowns; it shows "in X minutes" and updates automatically as time passes.
Where can I use Discord timestamps?
Timestamps work in regular messages, embeds, channel topics, forum posts, and anywhere else Discord renders rich text. The syntax is always the same: <t:UNIX:S> where UNIX is the timestamp in seconds and S is the style letter shown above.
