What is the current unix timestamp?

At the moment this page was served, the unix timestamp was 1792727677. The live counter on this page ticks the exact value every second.

Unix time counts the seconds elapsed since the epoch — January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC — ignoring leap seconds. It is the standard machine representation of time on virtually every operating system.

When does unix time run out?

Signed 32-bit unix time overflows on January 19, 2038 at 03:14:07 UTC — the 'Year 2038 problem'. Systems using 64-bit time, which is now the norm, are safe for billions of years.

Following the live clock — pick a date and zone to convert.

Unix time is the machine face of the clock: a single integer counting seconds since the epoch, identical in every time zone. It skips leap seconds, so a day is always exactly 86,400. Conversions here run through the same IANA rules as the time converter, so daylight saving is handled automatically.
