Find Your Age in Any Year

Your age in a given year depends on whether your birthday has happened yet. Someone born in 2015 turns 14 in 2029, but is still 13 until the birthday. That is why this calculator shows your age on your birthday, on 1 January and on 31 December of the year you choose.

Methodology

With a full date of birth, the calculator measures completed calendar years from the birth date to your birthday, to 1 January and to 31 December of the chosen year. With only a birth year it subtracts the years.

Age in year = chosen year − birth year

That is the age you reach during the year. Before the birthday you are one year younger.

Worked example

Date of birth: 18 September 2015
Year to check: 2029

Birthday in 2029: Tuesday, 18 September
Age on 1 January 2029: 13
Age on 31 December 2029: 14

Age in 2029 = 14 (turning 14 on 18 September).

Age reached in a year, by birth year

This table shows the age reached during each year, after the birthday. Before the birthday, subtract one.

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate my age in a certain year?

Enter your date of birth and the year you want to check. The calculator shows the age you turn on your birthday in that year, your age on 1 January and your age on 31 December. With only a birth year, subtract it from the chosen year.

How old will someone born in 2013 be in 2030?

They turn 17 in 2030. Before their birthday in 2030 they are still 16, and from the birthday onward they are 17. Enter the full date of birth to see the exact ages on 1 January and 31 December.

What is the difference between age on 1 January and 31 December?

Your age on 1 January is the age you had at the start of the year, before most birthdays. Your age on 31 December is the age you reach by the end of the year. They are the same only if your birthday falls on 1 January.

Can I use only a birth year?

Yes. Type just the four-digit birth year, such as 2015, and the calculator subtracts it from the chosen year. The result is the age reached during that year, which is one year less before the birthday.

Can I find my age in a past year?

Yes. Enter any year on or after the birth year. For example, someone born in 1990 turned 25 in 2015.

What if I was born on 29 February?

In years without a 29 February, the calculator uses 28 February as the birthday.

Are the dates stored?

No. The calculation runs in your browser and the dates are not uploaded or saved by this website.
