Age Calculator

Calculate an exact calendar age and see the number of days until the next birthday.

Use MM/DD/YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD.

Defaults to today; edit it anytime.

How to use the Age Calculator

  1. Enter the date of birth.
  2. Choose the date on which to calculate age.
  3. Review the calendar age and totals.

How it works

Calendar subtraction borrows days and months as needed instead of dividing the total number of days by 365.

Formula

Exact age = target date − date of birth (calendar years, months and days)

Example

Someone born January 1, 1990 is 36 years old on January 1, 2026.

Common uses

  • Checking age on a specific date
  • Birthday countdowns
  • Calculating elapsed lifetime days
