About this tool
Discord supports dynamic timestamps: a tag like <t:1720000000:F> renders as a full date-and-time in each viewer's own timezone and locale. Announce an event with one and nobody has to ask "what time is that for me?" — which is why they're standard for raids, premieres, tournaments and deadlines.
The number inside is a Unix timestamp (seconds since 1970), and the letter picks one of seven styles — short/long time, short/long date, two combined styles, and R, the live relative countdown ("in 2 hours", then "5 minutes ago"). The previews on this page show approximately what each style renders as for you.
Timestamps work in plain messages, embeds, channel topics — anywhere Discord renders markdown.
FAQ
Why does my timestamp show the wrong time?
The tag uses UTC internally (Unix time). Make sure you entered your own local time in the picker — Discord converts it correctly for every viewer, including you.
Which format is best for events?
Most communities post two: <t:X:F> for the full date and <t:X:R> right after it for the live countdown.
Do timestamps update live?
The relative format (R) updates as time passes. The absolute formats are fixed text rendered in the viewer's timezone.
Can I use these in an embed or bot message?
Yes — the same <t:…> syntax works in embed descriptions, fields and normal bot messages.
