Tips

Watch the ISO year in early January: January 1 can belong to week 52 or 53 of the previous ISO year. Some years have 53 ISO weeks - 2026 does, because it starts on a Thursday. For the full seven-day grid view, try the Calendar Week Calculator.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an ISO week number?

A number from 1 to 53 identifying a week under ISO 8601. Week 1 is the week containing the first Thursday of the year, and weeks always start on Monday.

Why is the ISO year different from the calendar year?

Days in early January can belong to the last ISO week of the previous year - for example, January 1, 2027 falls in ISO week 53 of ISO year 2026.

Do ISO weeks start on Monday or Sunday?

Monday. The ISO 8601 standard defines Monday as the first day of the week, which is the norm in European business calendars.

How many ISO weeks does 2026 have?

53. Years starting on a Thursday - like 2026 - get a 53rd week; most years have 52.

What dates are in a given week number?

It varies by year. The tool shows the full Monday-to-Sunday range for the week containing your date.
