About this calendar

A clearer way to see business days.

Count weekdays and U.S. federal business days month by month.

Business-day counts begin with Monday through Friday and then exclude the federal dates in the selected rule set. The monthly totals make short and long working periods easy to compare.

These totals are useful for estimates, not contractual deadlines. State, provincial, banking, court, and company calendars may exclude additional dates.

Read our data and calculation methods for coverage and accuracy limits. If a date or result looks wrong, report a calendar error.
