This template calculates the date/time difference between two dates. Dates in the Gregorian calendar from 9999 BCE to 9999 CE are supported. The calendar is proleptic—it is assumed to apply at all times with no irregularities.

  • {{time interval|date1|date2|options}}

There are two positional arguments: date1 and date2. The default for each is the current date and time.

The result displays text representing the time interval from date1 to date2 (date2date1).

Dates are UTC—local times and time zones are not supported.

Dates are checked for validity. For example, 29 February 2000 is accepted, but 29 February 1900 is not a valid date.

Each date can include an era or a time, and a variety of formats are accepted. Examples of valid dates are:

1900-02-01
1900-2-1
1900-02-01 14:45
1 FEB 1900
February 1, 1900
February 1 1900 14:45
2:45 pm February 1 1900
1 February 1900 2:45 p.m.
BC 1 Feb 120

Examples:

  • {{time interval|1 Jan 2001|March 4, 2002}} → 1 year, 2 months and 3 days
  • {{time interval|1 Jan 2001|March 4, 2002|abbr=on}} → 1y 2m 3d
  • {{time interval|B.C.E. 1 Feb 120|28 FEB 1900}} → 2019 years and 27 days
