Find the week number for any date

Businesses and schedules often refer to the ISO week number, and knowing which week a date falls in is a common need. This calculator finds the ISO 8601 week number for any date, plus the day of year and more.

Why ISO week numbers are specific

The ISO 8601 standard defines week numbering precisely: weeks start on Monday, and week one is the week containing the year’s first Thursday, which means early January can fall in the last week of the previous year and vice versa. This precision matters because businesses, especially in Europe, schedule and report by week number, and a casual count gets the boundaries wrong. The calculator applies the ISO rules correctly, so the week number matches what standardised systems use.
