Discord Timestamp Generator

Make a Discord timestamp — pick a date and time and copy a <t:…> code. Discord shows every reader the time in their own timezone, and the “Relative” one counts down live.

Read in your timezone (your device). Everyone who sees the message gets their own local time — that’s the point.

How Discord timestamps work

  • A Discord timestamp is a code like <t:1735689600:F>. The number is a Unix time (seconds since 1970); the letter picks the display style.
  • The magic: Discord renders it in each viewer’s own timezone. You set “8:00 PM” in your timezone; a friend three zones over sees their matching local time automatically. That’s why it beats typing a time.
  • The styles: t short time, T long time, d short date, D long date, f date & time (the default if you leave the letter off), F full with weekday, and R relative (“in 2 hours”, counts live).
  • Where it works: ✅ messages, embeds and most bot content. ❌ not in your username, server name or channel names — those are plain text.
  • Timezone note: this tool reads the date/time you pick in your device’s timezone (shown above the list). If you mean a time in a different zone, set your device clock or offset accordingly before copying.

FAQ

How do I make a Discord timestamp?

Pick a date and time above (or tap “Set to now”), choose the style you want, and tap Copy. Paste the <t:…> code into a Discord message — it turns into a formatted time.

Do timestamps show my timezone or theirs?

Theirs. You enter the time in your own timezone, and Discord automatically shows every reader the matching time in their local timezone. That’s the whole advantage over typing a time.

How do I make a countdown in Discord?

Use the “Relative” style (the <t:…:R> code). It shows “in 3 hours”, “in 2 days”, etc., and updates live for everyone viewing the message.

Can I put a timestamp in my username or channel name?

No — timestamps only render inside messages, embeds and bot content. Usernames, server names and channel names are plain text.
