Unclear what the questioner is asking. . . that the warrant was supposed to be served at a specific time, on a specific date? The only time/date that I am aware of that appears on search warrants is the time/date that it was prepared and the judge or magistrate signed it.

If the question is referring to a 'drop-dead' date by which the warrant must be served or becomes invalid. . . then the answer depends on the type of warrant it is, and what it was issued for.

Do the time the search warrant is obtain have to be on the warrant?

No. It's not the police's job to show you the warrant as long as they have a valid one. By the time they leave your house you will have one posted on your door or given to you personally. As long as its it's a valid warrant i.e. at the department just authorized its ok. Your entitled to a copy of it which you will get during the search if it is not already present at the time of the search. When the enter your house at that specific time if any officer has a warrant its valid. If they enter your house in the process of getting a warrant under the assumption that they will receive one its invalid. Actually having the warrant at the scene during the time of entry is not required.

They usually expire within a certain time-frame and are not good 'forever,' but his can vary from state to state or jusrisdiction to jurisdiction.
