Enter your date of birth
Use the Gregorian (AD) date shown on your passport. To convert a BS birth date to AD first, use the date converter.
Why this matters in Australia
Australian forms ask your age in AD while your Nepali documents are in BS — mismatches cause delays. Convert your birth date exactly.
Many families celebrate birthdays on the BS date. Find your BS birth date here, then watch the patro for your Nepali birthday each year.
Citizenship certificates, academic transcripts and marriage papers from Nepal all carry BS dates that need exact AD equivalents.

Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate my Nepali age?
Enter your date of birth in the Gregorian (AD) calendar above. The calculator shows your exact age in years, months and days, plus the equivalent Bikram Sambat (BS) birth date from the published patro records.
Why do I need my age in BS?
Nepali official documents — citizenship, passport, birth certificates, academic records — use BS dates. Australian forms use AD. Knowing both equivalents prevents errors in visa applications, passport renewals and paperwork.
How is Nepali age traditionally counted?
Some Nepali traditions describe a child as being in their "first year" from birth, similar to East Asian age reckoning, while official documents use standard completed-years age. This calculator shows standard age plus the exact BS birth date.
What date range is supported?
Any date of birth in the AD calendar works for age calculation. The BS birth-date equivalent is shown when the date falls within the published patro dataset (BS 2080–2084).
