By using the special format <t:TIMESTAMP:FORMAT> in Discord, you can display dates and times adjusted to the viewer's local timezone, or show relative times like "in 5 minutes" or "2 days ago".
This tool runs entirely within your browser and does not communicate with any external servers, ensuring safe and lightning-fast tag generation.

Glossary
- Discord Timestamp
- A markdown feature in Discord for displaying dates and times dynamically. It is written in the format `<t:Unix_Timestamp>`. The main advantage is that it automatically converts and displays the time according to the local timezone of each viewing user's device.
- Unix Timestamp (Unix Time)
- A numeric value representing the number of seconds that have elapsed since midnight on January 1, 1970 (UTC). It is a widely used method for expressing date and time in the computer world, and Discord uses these seconds for its tags.
- Relative Time
- A way of expressing date and time relative to the current moment, such as "3 hours ago" or "tomorrow". By specifying `R` as the format in Discord, the display automatically updates as time passes. It is extremely useful for event announcements.
- Local Timezone
- The standard time set on a user's device (PC or smartphone). By using Discord timestamps, even if a sender sets a date/time in Japan Standard Time, viewers in the US will see it in US time, preventing confusion caused by timezone differences.
- Format Specifier
- A symbol that determines the display style of the date and time. In Discord, by adding characters like `t` (short time), `D` (long date), or `R` (relative time) after the colon, you can control how the timestamp appears.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Q.Will members in other countries see the correct time?
- Yes. When you use these tags, the time is automatically converted and displayed according to each user's local timezone. It's perfect for scheduling with international members or global event announcements.
- Q.Do relative times (e.g., 'in 5 minutes', '2 days ago') update automatically?
- Yes. If you use the relative time format (R) in Discord, it updates in real-time as time passes (e.g., changing from 'in 10 minutes' to 'in 5 minutes').
- Q.Is the date/time data I enter saved on your server?
- No, nothing is saved. All timestamp conversions in this tool are processed locally within your browser, and no communication with external servers occurs. You can use it safely.
- Q.Can I use this on the mobile Discord app as well as PC?
- Yes. The generated timestamp tags are interpreted and displayed correctly on all official Discord applications, including PC, browser, and mobile (iOS/Android) versions.
- Q.Can I specify a past date and time?
- Yes, you can. You can select a past date from the calendar to generate tags. Using the relative time format, you can show expressions like '3 days ago' or '1 year ago'.
