What are Discord Timestamps?

Discord timestamps are special syntax that display dates and times in each user's local timezone. When you paste a timestamp code like <t:1234567890:R>, Discord automatically converts it to show relative time (like "in 3 hours") or formatted dates based on the viewer's settings.

How to Use

Select a date and time above (or tap a preset).
Choose the timestamp format you need.
Click Copy and paste into any Discord message or DM.
Discord renders it locally for each viewer (servers & mobile work too).
