TIMECORD

One timestamp. Everyone on time.

A practical guide to Discord dates, timezones, and relative time.

The small code that solves the timezone problem

A Discord timestamp has three parts: t identifies a timestamp, the number is Unix time in seconds, and the final letter chooses the display format.

<t:1792521000:f>

Example: this code represents October 20, 2026 at 18:30 UTC.

Choose the right format

Use f for a date and time, F when the weekday helps, or R for a countdown. The t and T formats only show time. The d and D formats only show the date. The s and S formats combine a compact date with time.

Your event time and their local time

Set the event’s source timezone before copying. A reader in Tokyo and a reader in New York receive the same instant, displayed in their own local time. Changing the preview timezone does not change the generated code.

Know what it does

Timestamps display a time. They do not schedule messages, create server events, send notifications, or supply a live second-by-second countdown. This tool never needs your Discord token.
