How it works

How to make a Discord timestamp

  1. Select your desired time

    Pick the date and the time, in your own timezone. The form opens on the current time, and “Reset to current time” takes it back there.

  2. Choose a type

    Short or long, time or date, or relative — “in 2 hours”. Output shows what Discord will display for it.

  3. Copy the generated code

    Press Copy to clipboard and paste the code into any Discord message. Discord turns it into a time in each reader’s local timezone.

The format

How Discord timestamps work

A Discord timestamp is a short piece of markdown: <t:1767225600:F>. The number is a UNIX time — seconds since 1970, the same everywhere on Earth — and the letter is how to show it. Discord swaps the code for a date written in each reader’s own timezone and language, so “8 PM” for you is “2 AM” for someone seven hours ahead, from the same message.

The relative type, R, keeps counting: “in 3 days” becomes “in 2 days” becomes “2 hours ago” with no edit. Timestamps work in messages, embeds, channel topics and bios — anywhere Discord renders markdown.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I put a timestamp in a Discord message?

Pick the date and time above, choose a type, copy the code and paste it into your message. When you send it, Discord shows the time instead of the code.

Will everyone see the time in their own timezone?

Yes. The code holds one exact moment, and Discord displays it in the timezone and language of whoever is reading.

What do the letters t, T, d, D, f, F and R mean?

t is short time, T long time, d short date, D long date, f long date with short time, F long date with the day of the week, and R relative — “in 2 hours”, “3 days ago”.

Which timezone is the time I enter in?

Your own — the one your device is set to. The code is timezone-free, so you never need to convert anything yourself.

Do Discord timestamps work on mobile?

Yes. They render the same way in the desktop app, the browser and the mobile apps.
