Limitations

Verify decisions with the relevant official authority and consider exceptions not represented by the calculator.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between "all days" and "business days"?

"All days" is a straight calendar count (e.g. "14 days from today"); "business days" skips your chosen weekend and, optionally, public holidays — useful for legal or contractual response windows.
