Understanding your result

Calendar results use the stated counting and anniversary convention. Complete months and years differ from fixed day counts.

Common mistakes

  • Counting both end dates when the method excludes a boundary, or assuming all months have equal length.
  • Assuming the ISO week-year always equals the calendar year.

Check your calculation

  • Test a short known interval and a leap-day boundary; for working days, verify your holiday list.

What ISO week number and week-year belong to this date?

Find the ISO week number, ISO week-year and weekday for a calendar date.

Common uses

  • Find the ISO week number, ISO week-year and weekday for a calendar date.

How it works

ISO week starts Monday; week 1 contains Jan4; derive week-year from Thursday. Calendar arithmetic uses the proleptic Gregorian calendar. Explicit calendar dates are independent of local daylight-saving changes. Month/year additions clamp to the last valid day of the destination month. Timestamp arithmetic requires a stated UTC offset and excludes leap seconds.

Worked example

Enter Calendar date: 2021-01-01. The result is Week year: 2020; Week: 53; Weekday: 5.
