There is a good blog about this topic  http   www baeldung com jackson-serialize-dates  Use  JsonFormat looks the most simple way   public class Event       public String name        JsonFormat        shape   JsonFormat Shape STRING  pattern    dd-MM-yyyy hh mm ss       public Date eventDate

JsonFormat only work for standard format supported by the jackson version that you are using   Ex  - compatible with any of standard forms   yyyy-MM-dd T HH mm ss SSSZ    yyyy-MM-dd T HH mm ss SSS Z     EEE  dd MMM yyyy HH mm ss zzz    yyyy-MM-dd    for jackson 2 8 6

I found a work around but with this I ll need to annotate each date s setter throughout the project  Is there a way in which I can specify the format while creating the ObjectMapper   Here s what I did   public class CustomJsonDateDeserializer extends JsonDeserializer lt Date gt         Override     public Date deserialize JsonParser jsonParser              DeserializationContext deserializationContext  throws IOException  JsonProcessingException            SimpleDateFormat format   new SimpleDateFormat  yyyy-MM-dd T HH mm ss            String date   jsonParser getText            try               return format parse date             catch  ParseException e                throw new RuntimeException e                         And annotated each Date field s setter method with this    JsonDeserialize using   CustomJsonDateDeserializer class

In addition to Varun Achar s answer  this is the Java 8 variant I came up with  that uses java time LocalDate and ZonedDateTime instead of the old java util Date classes   public class LocalDateDeserializer extends JsonDeserializer lt LocalDate gt          Override     public LocalDate deserialize JsonParser jsonparser  DeserializationContext deserializationcontext  throws IOException            String string   jsonparser getText             if string length    gt  20                ZonedDateTime zonedDateTime   ZonedDateTime parse string               return zonedDateTime toLocalDate                       return LocalDate parse string
