How to count days between dates

  1. 1

    Count down to a date

    Enter a target date in D-day to see how many days are left or have passed.

  2. 2

    Measure between two dates

    Enter a start and end date to get days, weeks, months and days, and business days. Tick “Include end date” if both ends should count.

  3. 3

    Add or subtract days

    Pick a start date, choose add or subtract, and enter the number of days to get the resulting date and weekday.

Counting days correctly

Inclusive or exclusive

Most off-by-one errors come from not deciding whether to count both ends. From October 1 to October 10 is 9 days apart, but 10 calendar days if you count both the first and the last day. Hotel nights use the first number, a trip itinerary the second.

D-day notation

D-n counts the days left before the target date. On the target date it reads D-day, and afterwards D+n. If an exam is on November 13, then October 1 is D-43.

100th-day anniversaries

Korean 100-day celebrations for babies and couples count the start date as day 1. The 100th day is therefore the start date plus 99 days, and the 1,000th day is the start plus 999. The anniversary list uses this rule by default.

Months and leap years

Months have 28 to 31 days, so “2 months” is not a fixed number of days. When the start date is the 31st and the end month is shorter, the count rolls over to the 1st of the next month. 2024 is a leap year: January 1, 2024 to January 1, 2025 is 366 days.

Time zones

Dates are calendar days on your device. No clock time is involved, so daylight saving changes and UTC offsets never shift the result by a day.
