How the Age Calculator Works

This privacy-first age calculator returns an exact breakdown of age in years, months, and days, a countdown to the next birthday, and your age on any specific date. It runs entirely in your browser (client-side JavaScript), so your dates never leave your device.

Start by selecting your Date of Birth. If you leave the Target Date empty, the calculator uses today’s date, making it a quick “How old am I?” tool. To check an age at a past or future moment—such as a filing date, school start, or compliance cut-off—choose a Target Date and click Calculate Age. The algorithm computes differences in a calendar-aware way: it accounts for varying month lengths (28–31 days) and leap years when rolling through months and years.

When the Target Date is today, you’ll also see time until your next birthday. For birthdays on 29 February, the next birthday in non-leap years is treated as 28 February by default, a widely used convention for anniversary calculations.

Typical uses include education and HR onboarding (age eligibility), sports or event categories, visa and immigration paperwork, pension and benefits planning, and milestone tracking. Outputs are presented in clear language and can be copied directly into forms or spreadsheets.

Tip: you can adjust either the Date of Birth or the Target Date and immediately re-run a scenario—handy for “what-if” checks around cut-off dates.
