The ultimate tool to create any Discord timestamp format. Just pick a date and time, and instantly get the code you need.
Ever announced a game night on Discord, only to have members show up an hour late due to timezone confusion? You're not alone. Our Discord Timestamp Generator is here to make scheduling effortless and precise for your global community.
Our tool is designed for speed and simplicity. Get your perfect timestamp in three easy steps:
Use the interactive panel at the top. This is the "command center" where you'll pick the exact date and time for your event.
Scroll down to the "Available Formats" section. You will see all timestamp styles update instantly with a live preview of how they'll look on Discord.
Click the "Copy Code" button next to your chosen format. It's now ready to be pasted directly into your Discord announcements, chats, or events.
Think of a Discord timestamp as a universal time translator. It's a special piece of code that, instead of showing a fixed time, magically displays the correct local time for every single person who sees it, no matter where they are in the world.
This is powered by Unix time. Instead of saving a date like "9 PM on October 26th," it stores the total number of seconds since January 1, 1970. The Discord app then converts this universal number into each user's local timezone.
Our tool generates all official formats, but knowing which one to use is key. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
| Format Name | Code Flag | Example Preview | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Short Time | :t |
9:30 PM | Quick, simple time references in conversation. |
| Long Time | :T |
9:30:00 PM | Precise start times where seconds matter (e.g., streams). |
| Short Date | :d |
10/26/2024 | Specifying a date without a time, like a deadline. |
| Long Date | :D |
October 26, 2024 | Formal announcements and event titles. |
| Short Date/Time | :f |
October 26, 2024 9:30 PM | The most common and useful format for general announcements. |
| Long Date/Time | :F |
Saturday, October 26, 2024 9:30 PM | Detailed, formal event scheduling. |
| Relative Time | :R |
in 2 hours | Creating hype and countdowns for upcoming events. |
Pro Tip: Combine formats for maximum clarity! Announce an event like: "The raid begins on
We didn't just build a utility; we built the best experience. Here’s why our generator stands out:
A Unix timestamp is the total number of seconds that have passed since January 1, 1970. Discord uses this universal system to display time consistently across all timezones.
The Relative Time format displays time in relation to the current moment, such as "in 2 hours" or "3 days ago." It's perfect for event countdowns or showing how long ago something happened.
