What Is a Business Day?
A business day is a working day, usually Monday through Friday, excluding weekends and selected holidays. It helps count the days typically used for work, projects and official deadlines.
Business Days vs. Calendar Days
Calendar days include every day, including weekends and holidays. Business days count only days not selected as weekends or entered holidays. The calculator does not automatically apply an official US holiday calendar.
Common Business Day Questions
How many business days are between two dates?
Choose the first date and last date, then calculate the working-day total. This helps answer searches such as “how many work days between two dates,” “number of weekdays between dates,” and “count business days between dates.”
How do I count weekdays without weekends?
Use the date range and leave Saturday and Sunday out of the count. If your workplace works on Saturdays, turn on the Saturday workday option. Add holiday dates separately when they should not count as workdays.
This free online working days calculator is useful for project deadlines, delivery estimates, payment terms, leave planning, office schedules and date-to-date workday counts. For US business-day calculations, remember that federal holidays may have observed dates; add the dates relevant to your workplace manually.
