You can parse the date using the Date constructor  then spit out the individual time components    x000D   x000D  function convert str    x000D    var date   new Date str   x000D      mnth     0     date getMonth     1   slice -2   x000D      day     0    date getDate    slice -2   x000D    return  date getFullYear    mnth  day  join  -    x000D    x000D   x000D  console log convert  Thu Jun 09 2011 00 00 00 GMT 0530  India Standard Time     x000D    - gt   2011-06-08  x000D   x000D   x000D    As you can see from the result though  this will parse the date into the local time zone   If you want to keep the date based on the original time zone  the easiest approach is to split the string and extract the parts you need    x000D   x000D  function convert str    x000D    var mnths     x000D        Jan   01   x000D        Feb   02   x000D        Mar   03   x000D        Apr   04   x000D        May   05   x000D        Jun   06   x000D        Jul   07   x000D        Aug   08   x000D        Sep   09   x000D        Oct   10   x000D        Nov   11   x000D        Dec   12  x000D         x000D      date   str split       x000D   x000D    return  date 3   mnths date 1    date 2   join  -    x000D    x000D   x000D  console log convert  Thu Jun 09 2011 00 00 00 GMT 0530  India Standard Time     x000D    - gt   2011-06-09  x000D   x000D   x000D

Above solutions will work only if its a string  Input type date  gives you output in javascript date object in some cases like if you use angular or so  That s why some people are getting error like  TypeError  str split is not a function   It s a date object  so you should use functions of Date object in javascript to manipulate it   Example here   var date    scope dateObj      dateObj is data bind to the ng-modal of input type dat  console log date getFullYear       this will give you full year eg   1990 console log date getDate       gives you the date from 1 to 31 console log date getMonth     1     getMonth will give month from 0 to 11    Check the following link for reference

function convert str        var date   new Date str           mnth     0     date getMonth   1   slice -2           day      0    date getDate    slice -2           hours      0    date getHours    slice -2           minutes     0    date getMinutes    slice -2       return   date getFullYear    mnth  day  hours  minutes   join  -        I used this efficiently in angular because i was losing two hours on updating a  scope STARTevent  and  scope ENDevent  IN console log was fine  however saving to mYsql dropped two hours    var whatSTART    scope STARTevent  whatSTART   convert whatever     THIS WILL ALSO work for END

The easiest way for me to convert a date was to stringify it then slice it   var event   new Date  Fri Apr 05 2019 16 59 00 GMT-0700  Pacific Daylight Time      let date   JSON stringify event  date   date slice 1 11      console log date     2019-04-05
