How to use

  1. Select the start and end dates.
  2. Choose to include the start date if both endpoints should count.
  3. Calculate to see the calendar-day count.

How it works

The result is end date minus start date, plus one when inclusive. It measures calendar dates, not elapsed hours across time zones or daylight-saving changes.

Common questions

Can I count down to an event?

Enter today as the start and your event date as the end.

Are weekends and holidays excluded?

No. All calendar days count. Business-day calculation is not included.

What if both dates are the same?

The result is zero, or one if inclusive. Supported years are 1000–9999.
