Date format by country

This page gives an overview of date formats by country, for the Gregorian calendar (see other calendars in use). (For time as well, see Date and time representation by country.)

Legends

All examples use example date 1996-04-22 / 22 April 1996 / April 22, 1996 – except where a single-digit day is illustrated.

Basic components of a calendar date for the most common calendar systems:

Y – Year
M – Month
D – Day

Order of the basic components:

B – Big-endian (year, month, day), e.g. 1996-04-22
L – Little-endian (day, month, year), e.g. 22.04.96 or 22/04/96 or 22 April 1996
M – Middle-endian (month, day, year), e.g. 04/22/96 or April 22, 1996

Specific formats for the basic components

yy – Two-digit year, e.g. 96
yyyy – Four-digit year, e.g. 1996
m – One-digit month for months below 10, e.g. 4
mm – Two-digit month, e.g. 04
mmm – Three-letter abbreviation for month, e.g. Apr
mmmm – Month spelled out in full, e.g. April
d – One-digit day for days below 10, e.g. 2
dd – Two-digit day, e.g. 02

Separators of the components

"/" – Slash
"." – Dots or full stops
"-" – Hyphens or dashes
" " – Spaces
