How this weekday count works
This count compares 2026-10-22 with 2027-01-01, counting Monday through Friday, skipping Saturdays and Sundays. The earlier date is excluded and the later date is included if it falls on a working weekday, whether the target is in the past or future. The calendar-day distance is 71 days, which is a different number.
The first day of a new year
January 1 often appears on planning calendars, but it is not automatically a working day. The basic countdown counts it if it falls on a weekday and does not subtract public holidays.
If January 1 is observed as a holiday where you work, exclude it manually. Check local offices and bank schedules before relying on this date.
This count refreshes every day. It only excludes Saturdays and Sundays. To exclude public holidays or set a different weekend, switch to the full Business Days Calculator.
