DTS Generator

Discord Timestamp Generator

Discord lets you display any date as a formatted timestamp that shows correctly for every user in their own timezone. This generator turns any date — or "now" — into the exact code you paste into your message. It works for every Discord client: desktop, mobile, and browser.

How to generate a timestamp

Pick a date or use "now", choose a display style (Short Time, Long Date, Relative, and more), and copy the generated code. Paste it into any Discord message and it will render as a formatted timestamp for everyone in the channel.

Why use a generator?

Discord timestamps require a Unix timestamp and a style letter wrapped in tags. Getting the Unix value wrong — or forgetting the style code — is easy to do by hand. A generator produces correct, copy-paste-ready code every time.

Works everywhere

Timestamps render natively in Discord — no bots, no embeds, no uploads. They work in servers, DMs, group chats, and even in your own notes.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Discord timestamp generator free?

Yes — free, unlimited, and it runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, no account is needed.

What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds since January 1, 1970 (UTC). Discord uses it internally to know the exact moment a timestamp refers to.

Can I use it for events in the past?

Yes — pick any date, past or future. Relative timestamps like "2 days ago" or "in 3 hours" update automatically as time passes.
