About the Nepali (Bikram Sambat) Calendar

Nepal officially uses the Bikram Sambat (BS) calendar – also known as the Vikram Samvat – for all government, legal, and everyday purposes. It is one of the oldest calendar systems in South Asia, believed to have originated in 57 BC.

The BS calendar is a solar calendar with 12 months, but unlike the Gregorian (AD) calendar, each month has a different number of days – ranging from 29 to 32 – and this length changes from year to year. This makes manual conversion complex, which is exactly why an accurate online Nepali date converter is essential.

The Nepali New Year (Navavarsha) falls on Baisakh 1, which typically corresponds to April 13 or 14 in the AD calendar. The BS calendar is currently approximately 56 years and 8 months ahead of the AD calendar.
