How does this calculator work?

Choose a start date and an end date. By default, the start date is excluded and the end date is included. Switch on “Include starting date” if you want to count it too. This tool uses Monday through Friday as working days.

Quick example

If Monday is the start date and Friday is the end date, there are four business days when Monday is excluded and five when included.

Frequently asked questions

Does it remove public holidays?

No. Public holidays differ by country and sometimes region. This intentionally evergreen version excludes weekends only.

What counts as the first day?

By default, counting starts on the day after the selected start date.
