How this calculator works

Days between dates counts the whole days elapsed from the start date up to the end date, then converts that total into weeks, months, and business days (Monday–Friday only, no holidays excluded). Add or subtract days takes a starting date and shifts it forward or backward by a number of days, showing you the resulting calendar date and day of the week.

Worked example

From January 1, 2026 to March 15, 2026:

  • Total days: 73 days
  • In weeks: 10 weeks, 3 days
  • In months: 2 months, 14 days
  • Business days (weekdays only): 52 days

Adding 45 days to January 1, 2026 lands on February 15, 2026, a Sunday.

Common questions

Does this calculator count the start date, the end date, or both?

The days-between mode counts the number of full days that elapse from the start date to the end date — the start date itself is not counted, but the end date is the point you're counting up to. So January 1 to January 2 is 1 day apart. If you need an 'inclusive' count (counting both the start and end day), add 1 to the result.

How are business days calculated?

Business days count Monday through Friday only, excluding Saturdays and Sundays. This calculator does not account for public holidays, since those vary by country, state, and even company — if your use case needs holiday exclusions, subtract them manually from the business-day count shown.

Why do the 'months and days' and 'total days' numbers not perfectly match if I convert one to the other?

Because months have different lengths (28 to 31 days), a calendar-based months-and-days breakdown isn't a simple division of total days by 30. The calculator finds the breakdown by counting whole calendar months between the two dates first, then the remaining days — which is the same method you'd use counting on a physical calendar.

Can I calculate a date far in the past or future?

Yes — there's no practical limit on how far back or forward you can calculate, though dates before the mid-1500s can behave unpredictably due to the historical transition from the Julian to Gregorian calendar, which this calculator doesn't account for.

How do I find what day of the week a future date falls on?

Use the 'Add or subtract days' mode: enter today's date, the number of days until the date you're interested in, and the result shows both the resulting date and its day of the week — useful for figuring out if an event lands on a weekend.
