Why a converter is needed

Bikram Sambat is roughly 56 years and 8 months ahead of AD, but its months don’t have fixed lengths. Each year’s month lengths are set in advance, between 29 and 32 days, so the gap between the two calendars shifts by a few days from month to month. This converter uses the published month lengths for every year from 2000 to 2090 BS.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers about this calculator and how to understand its results.

How do I convert a Nepali date to an English date?

Choose “BS to AD”, pick the Nepali month, and enter the day and year. The English (AD) date and weekday appear straight away.

How do I convert an English date to a Nepali date?

Choose “AD to BS” and enter the English date. The result shows the Bikram Sambat date in English and in Nepali (Devanagari).

What is today's date in the Nepali calendar?

Today's Bikram Sambat date is shown at the top of the converter. It uses Nepal time, so it changes at midnight in Kathmandu.

Why can't I just add 56 years and 8 months?

Bikram Sambat months have 29 to 32 days and the pattern changes every year, so a fixed offset is often a day or more out. The converter uses the actual month lengths for each year.

Can I convert my citizenship or passport date of birth?

Yes. Enter the BS date of birth from your document to get the AD date, or the other way round. Always check the converted date against your official records.

Which years are supported?

2000 BS to 2090 BS, which is 14 April 1943 to April 2034 AD.
