Common questions

Are weekends and holidays excluded?

No — the difference counts every calendar day. For business days, apply your own weekday filter on top of the total.

Does it handle leap years?

Yes — February 29 is counted whenever it falls inside the range, so multi-year spans are exact.

What about time zones?

The calculator works in calendar days; a range crossing time zones is interpreted in your local date.
