Calculate Your Age on a Specific Date

The short answer

Many forms ask your age on a fixed date, not today. Enter your date of birth, then change the 'age on' date to the cut-off in the notice. The tool shows your exact age on that day in years, months and days, so you can see whether you meet the limit.

Change this to an exam's cut-off date to check eligibility.

Frequently asked questions

Does being 21 years and 11 months count as 21?

Yes for most rules: you are 21 until your 22nd birthday. Whether that meets a limit such as 'not above 21' depends on the notice, which is why the exact days matter.

What if the cut-off falls on my birthday?

On your birthday you have completed the new year, so the tool counts it. Check the notice for wording such as 'as on' and 'must not have completed'.
