Frequently asked questions

What is ISO 8601 format?

ISO 8601 writes dates as YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. 2026-07-11. It sorts correctly as text and is the international standard for exchanging dates.

What's the difference between US and EU formats?

US format is MM/DD/YYYY (month first) while European format is DD/MM/YYYY (day first). The tool shows both so there's no ambiguity.
