How to calculate a past date
Enter a number of days and the calculator subtracts it from today. The result shows the exact calendar date and weekday. To count back from a different day, change the end date. Today is day zero, so one day ago is yesterday.
Use a quick choice for 7, 30, 60, 90 or 1,000 days ago, or enter any non-negative number. The calculator counts calendar days, including weekends and public holidays. The other modes can find a later date or count the days between two dates.

Does this calculator use calendar days or business days?
This calculator counts calendar days, which includes weekends and public holidays. For business day calculations, each weekend or holiday would need to be subtracted separately.
What is the week of year and day of year shown in the results?
The week of year uses the ISO 8601 standard, where week 1 is the week containing the first Thursday of January. The day of year counts from 1 on January 1st to 365 or 366 on December 31st in a leap year.
What was the date a very large number of days ago, like 1,000 or 10,000?
This calculator works for any number of days, no matter how large. Enter a figure like 1,000, 10,000, or 100,000 in the Days Ago field and it instantly returns the exact calendar date and weekday that far in the past.
Is a days ago calculator the same as a date duration calculator?
Yes, they solve the same underlying problem. A date duration calculator or date difference calculator finds the number of days between two dates, which is exactly what this calculator's Date Difference mode does.
How long ago was a specific date, in years and months?
Switch to the Date Difference mode and enter the specific date as the Start Date and today as the End Date. The result shows the gap in total days, weeks, and months, which you can convert to years by dividing the months by 12.
Does "days ago" count today as day zero or day one?
Today counts as day zero. "1 day ago" is yesterday, and "7 days ago" is exactly one calendar week before today.
