Every Country's Date Format Mapped (MM/DD vs DD/MM)
06/09 - Is that June 9th or September 6th? We mapped the world to solve the ultimate calendar confusion! 🗓️🌍
It happens to all of us. You go to book a flight, check a deadline, or read an expiration date, and you have no idea if the month or the day comes first. While the US strictly follows the MM/DD/YY format, the vast majority of the globe uses DD/MM/YY, and some even use the ultra-logical YY/MM/DD!
In this video, The Geo Bytes maps out exactly which countries use which date formats in 2026. Is your country the odd one out, or are you part of the global majority? Watch to find out, and you'll never misread an international date again!
