How the Retirement Age Calculator Works

Enter your date of birth and the age at which you plan to retire, or the age you're eligible to. The calculator gives the exact date you reach that age and how many years, months, days and working days remain.

Use Your Own Retirement Age

Statutory pension and Social Security ages differ by country and by birth year, and they change over time. This tool doesn't guess your eligibility. You choose the age, and it does the date maths. For the current rules, see our guides for the UK, the US and Europe, linked below.

Working Days Are an Estimate

The 'working days' figure assumes five working days in every seven and ignores public holidays and leave, so treat it as a rough guide.

Example

Someone born on 1 June 1980 who plans to retire at 67 reaches that age on Saturday, 1 June 2047. From 28 September 2026 that's 20 years, 8 months and 4 days away (7,551 days).

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I calculate how long until I retire?
A: Enter your date of birth and your target retirement age above. The calculator finds the date you reach that age and counts the years, months and days from today.
Q: What is the retirement age?
A: It depends on your country, your birth year and the scheme. Full Social Security and State Pension ages have been rising in many countries. Check the official rules or our guides below, then enter that age here.
Q: Does this include weekends and holidays?
A: The days-left figure is calendar days. The working-days figure is an estimate that removes weekends only, not public holidays or leave.
Q: Can I retire before the official retirement age?
A: Many schemes allow early retirement, sometimes with reduced benefits. Enter an earlier age to see that date, and check your scheme's rules.
Q: What if I was born on 29 February?
A: If the retirement year has no 29 February, the calculator uses the last day of February.
