What is the Date Difference Calculator?

Calculate the number of days, weeks and months between two dates.

It subtracts the start date from the end date in whole calendar days, optionally adding one if you count both end dates. The same span is also broken into years, months and days, weeks and days, hours, and Monday to Friday weekdays.

Hours, dates and records are small details that cause big arguments when they are missing. Keeping a clean log protects everyone involved.

Tips for better results

Use the inclusive option when both the first and last day count, such as a hotel stay billed per day or a leave request. If you enter the dates in reverse, they are swapped for you.

Record entries on the same day while they are fresh.

Keep dated copies. They are useful for invoices and disputes.

Privacy and where your data goes

Frequently asked questions

Should I count the end date?

Leave it off for elapsed time, like days between 1 and 10 January being 9. Turn it on when both days count, which gives 10.

Does the weekday count include public holidays?
