Why You Need a Nepali Date Converter

Nepal officially follows the Bikram Sambat (BS) calendar, which runs approximately 56 years and 8 months ahead of the Gregorian (AD) calendar. For students applying to international universities or embassies, almost all documents such as birth certificates, school transcripts, and SLC/SEE certificates carry dates in BS. Visa applications, bank statements, and foreign university admission forms require AD dates, making a reliable date converter an essential tool.

Common Uses for Date Conversion

Visa applications: embassies require dates in AD format
University admissions: foreign universities use the Gregorian calendar
Bank documents: financial statements for scholarship applications
Birth certificate conversion: date of birth verification for international forms
Document verification: converting SLC, +2, and Bachelor's degree dates

Put This Converter on Your Own Site

The converter is free to embed on any website, blog, or school portal. Copy one of the snippets below. It loads from our servers, so the calendar table stays current without you having to update anything.

1. Standard embed

Paste this wherever you want the tool to appear. The attribution link sits outside the iframe so readers can see where the tool comes from.

<iframe src="https://www.consultancyhunt.com/date-converter/embed.php"
        title="Nepali Date Converter (BS to AD)"
        style="width:100%;max-width:640px;height:430px;border:1px solid #e2e8f0;border-radius:12px"
        loading="lazy"></iframe>
<p style="font-size:13px">
  Powered by <a href="https://www.consultancyhunt.com/date-converter/">Nepali Date Converter</a>
</p>

2. Auto-resizing embed

The widget posts its height to the parent window, so the iframe can grow and shrink with the content instead of leaving a scrollbar or a gap.

<iframe id="npDateConverter" src="https://www.consultancyhunt.com/date-converter/embed.php"
        title="Nepali Date Converter (BS to AD)"
        style="width:100%;max-width:640px;height:430px;border:1px solid #e2e8f0;border-radius:12px"
        loading="lazy"></iframe>
<script>
window.addEventListener('message', function (e) {
  var frame = document.getElementById('npDateConverter');
  if (e.source !== frame.contentWindow || e.origin !== new URL(frame.src).origin) return;
  var height = Number(e.data && e.data.height);
  if (e.data && e.data.type === 'ndc:height' && Number.isFinite(height) && height >= 240 && height <= 1200) {
    frame.style.height = Math.ceil(height) + 'px';
  }
});
</script>

3. Use the library directly

If you would rather build your own interface, load the conversion library on its own. It has no dependencies and exposes a single global.

<script src="https://www.consultancyhunt.com/assets/js/nepali-date.js"></script>
<script>
  // Nepali to English
  NepaliDate.bsToAd(2081, 1, 1).ad.formatted;   // "2024-04-13"

  // English to Nepali
  NepaliDate.adToBs(2024, 4, 13).bs.formatted;  // "2081-01-01"

  // Today, and the day of the week
  var t = NepaliDate.today();
  t.bs.formatted;    // e.g. "2083-04-15"
  t.bs.monthName;    // "Shrawan"
  t.weekdayNp;       // "शुक्रबार"

  // Days in a given BS month
  NepaliDate.daysInBsMonth(2081, 1);            // 31
</script>

The credit link is optional. You can remove it from the snippet.
