Count the working days between two dates, automatically excluding weekends and any holidays you list, with support for regions that use a Friday–Saturday weekend.
This free calculator counts working days between two dates, skipping weekends and any holidays you provide. Everything is calculated locally in your browser, so your dates and holiday list are not uploaded or stored by this tool.
Enter a start date and an end date, in either order.
Use Saturday + Sunday, Friday + Saturday, or a fully custom set of days.
Paste one date per line to exclude public holidays from the count.
A business day count is the total number of calendar days in a range, minus weekend days and any holidays that fall on a working day within that same range. This matters for shipping estimates, contract deadlines, and payroll calculations, where weekends and public holidays should not count toward the total.
Most regions exclude Saturday and Sunday, but some use Friday and Saturday instead.
Only holidays that fall within your chosen date range and are not already a weekend day are excluded.
Both the start and end date are counted as part of the range.
The tool counts every calendar day from your start date to your end date, then removes weekend days and any dates you listed as holidays that fall within that range, leaving only working days.
Yes. Choose the Friday + Saturday preset for regions that use it, or select Custom to pick any combination of weekend days yourself.
Paste one date per line into the holidays box using the YYYY-MM-DD format, for example 2026-12-25. Any listed date that falls within your date range and is not already a weekend day is excluded and counted separately.
Yes. It is free to use, and your dates and holiday list are processed locally in your browser rather than uploaded or stored by the tool.
