How many days till Eid?

Eid-ul-Fitr falls on 1 Shawwal (lunar, varies each Gregorian year). Eid-ul-Adha falls on 10 Dhul-Hijjah. Both are determined by Pakistani moon-sighting committees (Ruet-e-Hilal Committee), so exact Gregorian dates shift by approximately 11 days earlier each year. Use this calculator with your Eid-ul-Fitr expected date as the end date to see the countdown, typically 6 to 8 weeks before Ramadan begins. Cross-check with the official Ruet-e-Hilal notification close to the date.

How many days till 14 August (Pakistan Independence Day)?

Pakistan Independence Day is fixed on 14 August every year. Set end date to next August 14 and start date to today. Other fixed Pakistani holidays: 5 February (Kashmir Day), 23 March (Pakistan Day), 1 May (Labour Day), 6 September (Defence Day), 9 November (Allama Iqbal Day), 25 December (Quaid-e-Azam Day). Lunar holidays (Eids, 9-10 Muharram, 12 Rabi-ul-Awwal, Shab-e-Miraj, Shab-e-Barat) shift each year.

How do I count business days excluding Pakistani holidays?

Pakistan has 14 to 16 official public holidays per year (fixed dates + lunar Eid / Ashura / Eid Milad days). This calculator counts all calendar days. To get business days: subtract weekends (Saturday + Sunday or just Sunday depending on your sector, banking is 5-day, government is 5 or 6-day depending on province) and subtract Pakistani public holidays. Rough rule for a calendar year: 365 days minus 104 weekend days minus 14 holidays ≈ 247 working days.

How do I track visa stay days in UAE, KSA, UK or US?

Set start date to your arrival in the country and end date to today (or planned departure). Total days = days stayed. Important reference rules: UAE residency visa typically allows 6-month absence before cancellation, UAE visit visa 90 days extendable to 180. Saudi Iqama renewal annual, requires monthly muqeem checks. UK ILR five-year rule = max 450 days outside UK in 5 years. US green card holders cannot remain outside US for over 180 days without reentry permit. Always verify against the specific visa class, rules differ.

How many days in Ramadan?

Ramadan is the 9th Hijri month, lasting 29 or 30 days depending on moon sighting. Pakistani Ramadan starts and ends per the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee announcement. To count Ramadan days: set start = 1 Ramadan (converted to Gregorian via our Hijri Date Converter), end = 1 Shawwal (Eid-ul-Fitr morning). Most Ramadans are 29 or 30 days. To plan your fasting schedule, calorie / sleep adjustments, taraweeh attendance, start the countdown 4 to 6 weeks early.

Are weekends and holidays excluded?

No, this calculator counts all calendar days inclusive. For business-day-only counts, manually subtract weekends and public holidays for your jurisdiction. We may add a business-day mode in a future update, for now, use the calendar-day count and adjust.

What does total days include?

Total days is the absolute count of days between the two dates, leap-year-aware, inclusive of one boundary day (start is day 0, end is day N, N is the displayed total). Months are counted as full calendar months between dates, then remaining days are added, months vary in length so the months count is calendar-accurate, not divided.

Can I use this for legal age or contract calculations?

It gives a precise calendar count, but legal definitions vary. Pakistani contract law typically counts complete calendar years. Tenancy law counts complete months. Always confirm against the specific contract clause or jurisdiction rule. For visa compliance especially, count conservatively, better to leave early than overstay.
