About this tool

Paste a JSON Web Token to see its header and payload decoded, with the registered claims resolved into readable form: issued-at, not-before and expiry are shown as local dates alongside a live verdict on whether the token is currently within its validity window.

Decoding is not verification. This tool reads the token's contents and checks its structure and timestamps; it does not verify the signature, because doing so would require the signing key. Treat a decoded token as untrusted input until your backend has verified it.

How to use it

  1. 1Paste the full token — three base64url segments separated by dots.
  2. 2Read the decoded header and payload panels.
  3. 3Check the claims summary for expiry and validity window.
