What are Discord Timestamps?

Discord timestamps are special text tags that automatically convert a Unix timestamp into a human-readable date or time for every user, displayed in their own local timezone. The format is <t:UNIX_TIMESTAMP:FORMAT>. When you send a timestamp tag in Discord, every person who reads the message sees the date and time converted to their own timezone — no manual conversion needed.

Discord supports 7 timestamp format styles, each controlled by a single letter suffix:

How to Use Timestamps in Discord Bots

In Discord bots, generate the tag programmatically: in JavaScript use <t:${Math.floor(Date.now()/1000)}:R> for a relative timestamp, or in Python use f'<t:{int(time.time())}:R>'. The R (Relative) format is especially popular for showing countdowns, cooldowns, and event start times.
