Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a Nepali Age Calculator?
It is an online tool that calculates your exact age in the Bikram Sambat (BS) calendar, which is the official calendar of Nepal. It can also convert your birthdate from AD to BS or from BS to AD.
2. How do I calculate my age in Nepali date (BS)?
Simply enter your date of birth in either AD or BS format using the calculator above. Click the calculate button and the tool will instantly show you your exact age in both BS and AD.
3. What is the difference between BS and AD?
BS stands for Bikram Sambat, the official national calendar of Nepal. AD stands for Anno Domini, the standard Gregorian calendar used internationally. The BS year is approximately 56 to 57 years ahead of the AD year.
4. Why is my BS age and AD age the same number?
This is normal and correct. Since both calendars measure years of approximately the same length, the number of years you have lived does not change based on which calendar you use to count them. Minor differences of 1 year can occur around your birthday, depending on when it falls in each calendar. The months and days portion of your age will often differ between the two systems.
