Date difference calculator

See the time between two dates in days, weeks, months and years.

How it works

The calculator counts the full years first, then the full months, then the days left over. It also shows the total in days, weeks and hours. Tick the box to count the end date as well, which is how many contracts and leave periods are counted.

From 1 January 2026 to 3 October 2026 is 275 days, or 9 months and 2 days.

Common questions

Should I count the end date?

It depends on what you are measuring. For a stay or leave period from Monday to Friday, both days count, so tick the box. For the time between two events, leave it unticked.
