What is a months between dates calculator?

It calculates the exact number of calendar months (and days) between any two dates. Most useful for contract periods: tenancy agreements, fixed-term employment, mortgage terms, and notice periods.

How it calculates months

The calculator counts complete calendar months between the start and end date, then shows the remaining days. It also shows total days and weeks.

01

Enter dates

Select a start and end date using the date pickers.

02

Read results

The result shows total months, years+months breakdown, total weeks, and total days.

Calculation method

months = (years diff × 12) + months diff

Calendar months are counted directly. The remaining days after complete months are also shown.

Tips & Best Practices

  • A 6-month AST tenancy: landlord cannot give notice before month 4 to end at month 6

  • 3-month notice periods in senior roles often start on the first day of the following month

  • A 2-year fixed mortgage: use this to check when your deal ends and when to start remortgaging

  • Tax year runs 6 April to 5 April — exactly 12 months
