What is Epoch Converter?

An epoch converter translates Unix timestamps to human-readable dates and back — a daily tool for log analysis and API debugging.

How it works

Paste seconds or milliseconds since 1970-01-01 UTC and convert to local/UTC representations, or generate timestamps from calendar times.

Common issues

  • Seconds vs milliseconds

    JavaScript often uses milliseconds while many APIs use seconds. Values around 1e12+ are usually ms; around 1e9 are seconds.

Frequently asked questions

What timezone are results in?

Unix time is UTC-based. Display may also show your local timezone — confirm which you need for the ticket.
