About the Bikram Sambat calendar

Bikram Sambat (BS, विक्रम संवत्) is Nepal’s official calendar. It is about 56 years and 8 months ahead of the English (Gregorian) calendar, and the Nepali New Year falls in mid-April. Unlike English months, BS months have between 29 and 32 days, and the lengths change from year to year, which is why a converter is needed.

Frequently asked questions

What is today’s Nepali date?

Today’s date in Bikram Sambat is shown at the top of this page, under “Today in Nepal”. It uses Nepal time (UTC+5:45), so it is correct wherever you are.

How do I convert a BS date of birth to AD?

Choose BS → AD, pick the year, month, and day of birth, and the English date and weekday appear instantly. This is useful for passports, visas, and forms abroad.

Why do Nepali months have different numbers of days?

Bikram Sambat months follow the sun’s movement through the zodiac, so each month is 29 to 32 days long, and the lengths are set each year in the official calendar (patro).

Which years does this converter support?

2000 to 2090 BS (14 April 1943 to 13 April 2034 AD). Calendar data for later years has not been officially published, so those dates are not supported.
