What is a Discord Timestamp?
A Discord timestamp is a special code format (like <t:1758844800:R>) that uses UNIX time to automatically convert to the viewer's local time zone. It solves the challenge of cross-timezone coordination in global communities, ensuring everyone sees the correct local time for events and deadlines.

What is a Discord timestamp and how does it work?
A Discord timestamp is a special code that looks like <t:UNIX:style>. The UNIX value is an absolute second-based time (UTC) and Discord automatically renders it in each viewer’s local time, removing time-zone confusion for global communities.
What is the correct Discord timestamp format?
Use <t:unix_timestamp:style>. Supported styles: :t (short time), :T (long time), :d (short date), :D (long date), :f (short date/time, default), :F (long date/time), :R (relative time like “in 3 hours”). Example: <t:1758844800:R>.
How do I use a Discord timestamp generator?
Open the generator, pick a date and time, and copy the output code (e.g., <t:unix:style>). The tool converts human time to a valid UNIX timestamp and lets you preview all styles before pasting into Discord.
How do I convert a date/time to a Discord UNIX timestamp?
You can use a Discord timestamp converter: select your local date/time and it returns the UNIX seconds value. Important: Discord expects seconds, not milliseconds. If you’re coding, divide epoch milliseconds by 1000.
How do Discord timestamp time zones work?
The timestamp stores an absolute moment in UTC. Discord localizes that moment per viewer based on their device settings. You don’t put a time zone in the code; simply generate the correct UNIX time for the event.
How do I make a Discord timestamp countdown?
Use the :R style. Example: <t:1758844800:R> shows a live, auto-updating relative time like “in 5 days” or “2 hours ago.” It’s ideal for deadlines, launches, raids, and AMAs.
How can I show a Discord timestamp without the date?
Use time-only styles: :t (e.g., 5:00 PM) or :T (5:00:00 PM). Example: <t:1758844800:t>. For dynamic context without a date, :R also hides the calendar date by showing relative time.
What does “Unix timestamp Discord” mean?
It refers to using UNIX epoch seconds inside Discord’s syntax: <t:UNIX:style>. UNIX time is the number of seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC (no leap seconds). Discord then formats it for each viewer.
Do Discord timestamps work in embeds and bots?
Yes. Put the <t:UNIX:style> code in message content or embed fields. Note for developers: the embed’s native "timestamp" property expects an ISO-8601 string (e.g., "2025-09-25T17: 00: 00"), not the <t:...> syntax.
Why is my Discord timestamp showing the wrong time?
Common causes: using milliseconds instead of seconds, converting from the wrong time zone or DST, or an incorrect system clock. Regenerate the UNIX seconds correctly and try :R for clearer, relative context.
