Find the time difference between any two dates.
Date duration is the difference between two dates, typically measured in years, months, and days. Whether you're planning a project timeline or checking how long it's been since a specific event, understanding the time difference is useful in personal, professional, and legal contexts.
Unlike a simple subtraction of days, good calculators account for leap years, varying month lengths, and inclusion of the end date if specified. For example, calculating from Jan 1, 2020, to Jan 1, 2021 gives 1 year or 366 days (2020 was a leap year).
- Work Experience: Calculate your experience duration between joining and exit date.
- Project Planning: Measure how long a task took, or estimate delivery timelines.
- Anniversaries: Count exact time passed since a wedding, birthday, or event.
- Legal & Compliance: Check durations for legal age, retirement eligibility, etc.
