About the Date Duration Calculator
The Date Duration Calculator counts the time between any two dates. Pick a start and an end date and it returns the total number of days, the same span expressed in weeks, months and years, the equivalent hours and minutes, and the number of business days (Monday to Friday) in between.
By default the end date is not counted, which is the convention for "days until": from 1 January to 3 January is two days. Tick "include the end date" when you need the number of calendar days a period covers, such as the length of a rental, a holiday or a project timeline.
Typical uses include project planning, calculating notice periods, counting down to a wedding or trip, working out how long you have held a job or lived somewhere, and checking deadlines that are expressed in working days.
How to use the Date Duration Calculator
