You forgot the + sign after ffffff, and the time zone field should be four characters: zzzz.

Thanks, But Its not working too.

Richard, [+] sign is redundant. Please, see my answer.

I lazily did not test it. Thus a comment rather than a solution.

Take a look at example:

C#

string s = @"2021-11-21 11:34:45.234567+0000";
string format = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.ffffffzzz";
System.Globalization.CultureInfo ci = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;
DateTime d;
if(DateTime.TryParseExact(s, format, ci, System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.None, out d))
	Console.WriteLine(d.ToString());
else
	Console.WriteLine("Incorrect date format!");

This format is not working Los.

I have tested it and it's working fine.

Try this:

C#

string input = "2021-11-21 11:34:45.234567+0000";
DateTime dt;
if (DateTime.TryParseExact(input,
                           "yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.ffffffzzzz",
                           CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
                           DateTimeStyles.None,
                           out dt))
    {
    Console.WriteLine(dt);
    }
