How it works
This calculator counts UTC calendar days from the selected date to December 31 of that same year.
By default, it uses today's UTC date. You can also enter a custom date to check days remaining at a different point in the year.
When Include today is off, the count shows days left after the selected date. When Include today is on, the selected UTC date is counted as one day through year end.
Weeks left are whole weeks (days ÷ 7, rounded down). Months left are an approximate calendar-month span (years/months/days), not fixed 30-day blocks.

Related Countdown Calculators
The Days Until Calculator counts calendar days to any future date—or how many days ago a past date was—with an optional include-today setting for planning.
Countdown To Date adds an optional UTC time, event name, and hour/minute updates when you need more detail than calendar days alone.
Seasonal calculators target the next occurrence automatically—no date to enter. Fixed dates include Valentine's Day (February 14), Independence Day (July 4), Halloween (October 31), Christmas (December 25), and New Year's Day (January 1).
Movable US holidays use the same rules as the dynamic event pages: Mother's Day (second Sunday in May), Easter Sunday (Gregorian), Thanksgiving (fourth Thursday in November), Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving), and Cyber Monday (the Monday after Thanksgiving).
For a live second-by-second display with hours and minutes, use the Countdown Timer when the target includes a specific time of day in UTC.
