About Nepali Age Calculator (Bikram Sambat to Gregorian)
The Nepali Age Calculator allows you to calculate your exact age based on the Nepali calendar system, also known as Bikram Sambat (BS). This powerful tool converts your BS birth date to the Gregorian (AD) system and calculates your precise age in years, months, and days. This is particularly useful for Nepali citizens who need to know their exact age for official documents, school admissions, citizenship applications, or government services.
How the Bikram Sambat Age Calculator Works
This calculator takes your birth date in the Nepali calendar format (year/साल, month/महिना, day/गते) and calculates your current age based on the current Nepali date. The calculation accounts for the varying month lengths in the Nepali calendar system, which differ from the Gregorian calendar. The complex conversion between BS and AD dates is handled automatically, considering leap years and different month lengths in both calendar systems.

Understanding the Bikram Sambat Calendar System
The Nepali calendar (Bikram Sambat) is approximately 56 years and 8 months ahead of the Gregorian calendar. For example, the year 2080 BS corresponds roughly to 2023-2024 AD. The Nepali new year typically begins in mid-April (around Baisakh 1), not January 1 as in the Gregorian calendar. This difference in new year dates can make your age appear different between the two calendar systems.
The Bikram Sambat calendar has different month lengths compared to the Gregorian calendar, with months varying between 29 to 32 days. This variation makes manual age calculation particularly challenging, which is why our automated calculator is so valuable for accurate results.
