About This Calculator
This business days calculator counts how many working days fall between two dates.
By default, Saturdays and Sundays are excluded and both the start and end dates are counted inclusive. The tool also shows the total calendar days and how many of them were weekend days, so you can see exactly how the two counts compare.
If your organization has a different weekend, disable the weekend exclusion to get the raw weekday count, then adjust manually.
Counting runs entirely in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it account for public holidays?
Not automatically — holidays vary by country and year. The tool handles weekends; subtract any public holidays that fall inside the range yourself.
Is the last day included?
Yes by default — "Include both start and end dates" counts both date bounds. Turn it off to count the days between them (excluding the end date).
