ISO vs. US Week Numbering

ISO 8601

  • Week starts on Monday
  • Week 1 = the week with the year's first Thursday
  • December dates can fall in Week 1 of the next ISO year
  • Used in Europe, Bulgaria, and most Asian countries

US System

  • Week starts on Sunday
  • Week 1 = the week containing January 1st
  • Can result in Week 53 or even Week 54
  • Used in the US, Canada, and Australia

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an ISO week number?

ISO week numbers are defined by the ISO 8601 standard. Week 1 of every year is the week that contains the year's first Thursday. Weeks always run Monday through Sunday.

When does ISO Week 1 start?

ISO Week 1 starts on the Monday of the week that contains January 4th. This means the first week can begin as early as December 29th of the previous year. You can find it by locating the year's first Thursday and stepping back to Monday.

How many weeks are in a year?

Most years have 52 ISO weeks. Years where January 1st falls on a Thursday — or Wednesday in a leap year — have 53 ISO weeks. These are called "long" ISO years.

What is the difference between ISO and US week numbering?

ISO 8601 starts weeks on Monday and defines Week 1 as the one containing the first Thursday. The US system starts weeks on Sunday and defines Week 1 as the one containing January 1st. The same date can fall in a different week number depending on which system you use.

Can the last days of December belong to Week 1?

Yes. If December 29, 30, or 31 falls in a week whose Thursday is in January, those days belong to Week 1 of the next ISO year — not to the final week of the current year.
