About Ethiopian Calendar Converter

Your reliable tool for accurate Ethiopian to Gregorian date conversion

What is the Ethiopian Calendar

The Ethiopian calendar, also known as the Ge'ez calendar, is the principal calendar used in Ethiopia. It has 12 months of 30 days each and a 13th month called Pagumē with 5 days (6 in leap years). The Ethiopian calendar is approximately 7-8 years behind the Gregorian calendar.

This unique calendar system is based on the ancient Coptic calendar and reflects Ethiopia's rich cultural heritage and independent historical development.
