Format reference
Discord timestamp tags use the same Unix value with a different final letter. Keep the Unix number unchanged and switch the format code when you need a different display style.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Discord timestamp?
A Discord timestamp is a tag like <t:1778601600:F> that Discord turns into a local date or time for each viewer. It uses a Unix timestamp plus a format code.
Why should I use Discord timestamps instead of typing a time?
Discord timestamps automatically display in each person's local timezone. That avoids confusion when a server has members in different countries or time zones.
What is the relative Discord timestamp format?
The relative format uses the R code, such as <t:1778601600:R>. Discord renders it as text like in 2 hours, tomorrow, or 3 days ago.
Does this Discord timestamp generator store my dates?
No. The converter runs in your browser and does not send your date, time, or generated tags to ChatSpark.
Can I paste these tags into any Discord channel?
Yes. Copy a generated tag and paste it into a Discord message, embed, webhook payload, event post, or announcement where Discord markdown is supported.
