Discord Timestamp Codes

Short Time:t

Shows time only (12-hour format)

<t:1769446832:t>→5:00 PM

Long Time:T

Shows time with seconds

<t:1769446832:T>→5:00:32 PM

Short Date:d

Shows date in MM/DD/YYYY format

<t:1769446832:d>→1/26/2026

Long Date:D

Shows full date with month name

<t:1769446832:D>→January 26, 2026

Short Date/Time:f

Shows date and time (default)

<t:1769446832:f>→January 26, 2026 5:00 PM

Long Date/Time:F

Shows full date with weekday and time

<t:1769446832:F>→Monday, January 26, 2026 5:00 PM

Relative Time:R

Universal Discord Timestamps

Discord timestamps are one of the most useful features for coordinating events, deadlines, and meetings across multiple timezones. When you paste a timestamp code into Discord, it automatically converts to each viewer's local time. No more confusion about when that raid starts or when the deadline is! Our generator creates all seven Discord timestamp formats, from simple times to relative countdown timers that update in real time.

How this Discord Timestamp Generator works

This utility solves the complexity of cross-timezone coordination in Discord by generating dynamic timestamp codes. It converts a user-selected local date and time into a Unix timestamp and wraps it in Discord's special syntax (<t:timestamp:format>). When posted, these codes automatically convert to every viewer's local time, eliminating confusion about event start times.

The interface provides instant access to all seven Discord format styles: Short Time (9:41 PM), Long Date, Relative Time (starts in 10 minutes), and more. A standout feature is the Relative Format (R), which creates a live countdown timer in chat. Quick presets buttons (like "In 1 hour" or "Tomorrow") speed up common tasks.

A live preview shows exactly how the timestamp will render in Discord's chat interface. Users can define the event time in their local timezone or any major world timezone, and the tool handles the UTC conversion. One-click copying makes it effortless to grab the correct code for raid announcements, server events, or meeting reminders, ensuring precise synchronization for international communities.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Discord timestamps?

Discord timestamps are special codes that display dates and times in each user's local timezone. They use the format <t:UNIX:FORMAT> where UNIX is seconds since 1970.

How do Discord timestamps work?

When you paste a timestamp code like <t:1706140800:f>, Discord converts it to each viewer's local time. This ensures everyone sees the correct time regardless of their timezone.

What is relative time (R format)?

The R format shows how much time has passed or remains, like "in 5 minutes" or "2 hours ago". It automatically updates as time passes.

Can I use these timestamps in Discord embeds?

Yes! Discord timestamps work in messages, embeds, and even in webhook messages. They render correctly everywhere timestamps are supported.

What timezone should I use?

Use your local timezone to set the time as you see it. Discord will automatically convert it for users in other timezones when they view the message.
