What this calculator does
The Australian financial year runs from 1 July to 30 June, a fixed date range set by law rather than by the calendar year most other countdowns use. This calculator answers how many weeks left in this financial year remain from a given date, in whole weeks plus the leftover days, without you having to work out which 30 June applies or count the weeks by hand.
The tricky part is not the arithmetic, it is picking the right end date. From January to June, the financial year finishes on 30 June of that same calendar year. From July to December, it finishes on 30 June of the following year instead, because a new financial year has already started on 1 July. This calculator works that out from the date entered, so it stays correct no matter what year it is run in.
The formula
First the calculator works out which financial year the given date falls in: if the date is in January to June, the financial year ends on 30 June of that calendar year; if it is in July to December, the financial year ends on 30 June of the following year. It then counts the days between the given date and that 30 June, dividing by seven to get whole weeks, with any leftover days shown separately.
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Financial year (Australia) | The 12-month period from 1 July to 30 June used for tax, budgeting and reporting purposes. |
| Weeks left | The number of complete 7-day periods between the date entered and the next 30 June. |
| Remaining days | Whatever is left over after counting whole weeks, from 0 to 6 days. |
The inputs explained
| Field | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Date | The date to count from. Leave it on today, or pick any other date to see how many weeks were, or will be, left in that financial year from that point. |
When to use it
Budgeting the rest of the financial year
A department or household budget often runs to the financial year rather than the calendar year, so knowing the weeks left is a quick way to pace remaining spend or savings targets against the time actually available.
Planning around the end of financial year (EOFY)
Sales, stocktakes, tax planning and reporting deadlines cluster around 30 June in Australia. Counting the weeks left gives a clear runway for getting ready before that date.

Questions
Why is the Australian financial year different from the calendar year?
It is a long-standing statutory choice, set to 1 July to 30 June rather than 1 January to 31 December, and it is what businesses, the Australian Taxation Office and most government reporting use. Calendar-year countdowns will not match it.
Does this work for financial years used in other countries?
No, this calculator is built specifically around the Australian 1 July to 30 June financial year. Other countries use different financial year boundaries, and a date entered here is always measured against the Australian dates.
What happens if I enter a date in the past?
The calculator still works out which financial year that date fell in, using the same January to June or July to December rule, and shows how many weeks were left in that financial year as at that date.
How is this different from a plain weeks-between-dates count?
A weeks-between-dates count needs both a start and an end date supplied. This calculator only needs one date, because the end date, 30 June, is fixed by the financial year rule and worked out automatically.
For a countdown between any two dates you choose yourself, see the weeks between two dates calculator. To find the ISO week number of a specific date instead, use the week number calculator.
