How to use it

Enter the date to start from — today is filled in for you — and the number of days. A positive number moves forward, a negative number moves back. The start date is day 0: 1 day after Monday is Tuesday. Weekends and public holidays are counted like any other day. If only working days should count, use the business days calculator and its "add business days" mode.

Popular counts

Days, weeks or months?

"Within 30 days" and "within one month" are not the same: from 31 January, 30 days later is 2 March, while one calendar month later is the end of February. Legal and financial deadlines usually say which they mean. When in doubt, count days — that is what this tool does. A week is always 7 days, so 6 weeks is 42 days and 12 weeks is 84 days.
