About Date to Epoch

Date to Epoch turns a date into a Unix timestamp. It accepts the clock time this tool prints (YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss UTC), a calendar day YYYY-MM-DD at midnight UTC, and an ISO-8601 string such as 2026-10-04T00:00:00Z.

The result is whole seconds since 1970-01-01. Turn on Milliseconds to write the same instant in milliseconds. A time with Z or a numeric offset keeps that instant. A time with no zone follows JavaScript ISO reading. A day that does not exist, such as 2026-02-31, is rejected.

Conversion runs in your browser and the date you paste is never uploaded. Swap sends the timestamp back to Epoch to Date.

Frequently asked questions

Which dates can Date to Epoch read?

The form this tool prints, YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss UTC, a date-only YYYY-MM-DD at midnight UTC, and an ISO-8601 string such as 2026-10-04T00:00:00Z.

What does the Milliseconds option change?

Off, the output is whole seconds since the Unix epoch. On, it is milliseconds for the same instant. 2026-10-04 00:00:00 UTC is 1791072000 seconds and 1791072000000 milliseconds.

Why was my date rejected?

The text was not one of the accepted forms, or the calendar day does not exist (for example 2026-02-31). The note says Invalid date.

Is the date I paste uploaded anywhere?

No. Conversion runs in your browser and the date you paste is never uploaded or logged. Google Analytics records page views and feature use, never content.
