Who Should Use This Military Time Converter

Use this converter to read a single clock time. Military notation such as 1730 means 17:30, or 5:30 PM. A clock time is different from a worked duration: use the military time card calculator to total shifts.

How to Use This Military Time Converter

  1. Choose 12-hour to 24-hour or 24-hour to 12-hour conversion.

  2. Enter the clock time. Include AM or PM for a 12-hour value; enter four digits or HH:MM for a 24-hour value.

  3. Review the result, including its leading zero and AM/PM marker.

  4. Copy the result or use the reference table to compare whole-hour times.
