An add or subtract dates calculator computes a new date by adding or subtracting a specified number of days, weeks, or months from a starting date. Used for deadlines, scheduling, and date planning.

Formule

result_date = start_date ± days (accounting for month/year boundaries)
start
Start date (date) — Base date (YYYY-MM-DD)
days
Days to add/subtract (days) — Positive = future, negative = past
result
Result date (date) — The calculated date

Stapsgewijze handleiding

  2. 2For weeks: multiply by 7 then add/subtract days
  3. 3For months: adjust the month field and handle month-end overflow

Veelgestelde vragen

How does the calculator handle month boundaries?

It automatically adjusts for varying month lengths and leap years. Adding 30 days to Jan 1 correctly lands on Jan 31.

Can I subtract dates to go backward in time?

Yes, use a negative number. Subtracting 10 days from Mar 15 = Mar 5. The calculator respects month/year boundaries.

What about leap seconds or daylight saving?

Calendar calculations ignore leap seconds and DST. They operate on calendar dates, not absolute time.
