About Unix Timestamp Generator
This tool generates Unix timestamps for any date and time you specify. Simply pick a date, enter a time, select the timezone, and get the corresponding Unix timestamp in seconds and milliseconds — ready to copy into your code, database query, or API request.
Common use cases include generating expiration timestamps for JWTs and session tokens, creating scheduled job timestamps for cron-like systems, setting future dates in database records, creating test fixtures with specific date values, and converting historical dates to timestamps for time-series analysis.
FAQ
How do I generate a timestamp for tomorrow?
Set the date to tomorrow's date with the current or desired time and click Generate. For an expiry token valid for 24 hours from now, take the current timestamp and add 86400 (24 × 60 × 60 seconds).
What timezone should I use?
Unix timestamps are always UTC-based. If your date/time is in local time, select "Local timezone" and the conversion to UTC will be handled automatically. For absolute precision, always store and compare timestamps in UTC.
