About the Date Format Converter
Dates arrive in one format and need to leave in another: an ISO string that must become DD/MM/YYYY, a timestamp that must read as "5 September 2026". This tool parses each input date, in almost any format or as a Unix timestamp, and reformats it with a pattern you specify using familiar tokens: YYYY, MM, DD, HH, mm, ss, plus MMMM for the month name, dddd for the weekday, hh and A for 12-hour time, and more.
Literal text can be included in square brackets. You choose whether the output is in UTC or your local time. Convert a whole column at once, one date per line. To see a date in every standard form at once, use the Unix Timestamp Converter.
How to use
- Paste dates or timestamps, one per line.
- Enter the output pattern, such as DD/MM/YYYY.
- Choose UTC or local, then copy the result.
