How it works
- UNIX time is the number of seconds elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC. This tool accepts both seconds (10 digits) and milliseconds (13 digits) as input.
- Mixing up the seconds and milliseconds units gives a date that is off by a factor of about 1000. As a rule of thumb, typical APIs and logs use roughly 10-digit seconds and 13-digit milliseconds.
- You can switch the display time zone between Japan Standard Time (JST, UTC+9) and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The same UNIX value shows a 9-hour difference between JST and UTC.
- The result also shows the weekday and the ISO 8601 string (with a trailing Z), so you can use it directly for log investigation and data reconciliation.
- Pressing the Now button automatically fills the input with the current UNIX time in the selected unit.
- This tool does not support daylight saving time. JST is always calculated as a fixed offset (UTC+9) throughout the year.
