Frequently asked questions
What is today's date in MM/DD/YYYY format?
It is shown in the US format list on this page, month first, then day, then year, with leading zeros, for example 10/24/2026. Press Copy to put it on your clipboard.
What is the ISO date format?
ISO 8601 writes the date as year-month-day, such as 2026-10-24. It sorts correctly in file names and is the standard for spreadsheets and databases.
What is a Unix timestamp?
It is the number of seconds since January 1, 1970 at 00:00 UTC. Developers use it to store times. The page shows the current value and it counts up every second.
Does this show my local date?
Yes. It uses the date and time zone set on your device. The page also shows the time zone name and its offset from UTC.
Why is the date different from another website?
Websites that show a server date may be in a different time zone. This page always follows your own device, so after midnight where you are, it changes immediately.
