About this calculator

The year/month/day difference is calculated calendar-style — counting full years, then full months, then remaining days — rather than dividing total days evenly, which avoids the rounding errors you'd get from assuming every month is the same length.

Total days, weeks and months are also shown for a quick at-a-glance comparison.

Frequently asked questions

Does the calculation include the end date?

It measures the span between the two dates, so the finish date is the endpoint rather than an extra counted day. Add one if you need to count both the first and last day inclusively.

Are leap years accounted for?

Yes. The difference is worked out from the real calendar, so 29 February and the varying lengths of months are handled correctly.
