The Kurdish calendar, also known as the Kurdistani calendar, is a solar calendar used by Kurdish people. It begins on Nowruz (the Spring Equinox, around March 21), which marks the Kurdish New Year. The Kurdish year count starts from 700 BCE, making the Kurdish year approximately 700 years ahead of the Gregorian year.
Select 'Gregorian → Kurdish', then enter the Gregorian year, month, and day. The calculator will compute the equivalent Kurdish year, month, and day based on the Kurdish calendar epoch starting from 700 BCE. For example, the Gregorian year 2025 corresponds roughly to the Kurdish year 2725.
The Kurdish calendar is approximately 700 years ahead of the Gregorian calendar. So Gregorian year 2025 corresponds to Kurdish year 2725. The new Kurdish year starts on Nowruz, which falls around March 20–21 each year.
The 12 Kurdish months are: Xakelêwe, Gulan, Cozerdan, Pûşper, Gelawêj, Xermanan, Rezber, Gelarêzan, Sermawez, Befranbar, Rêbendan, and Resheme. The first month, Xakelêwe, begins on Nowruz (around March 21 in the Gregorian calendar).
Nowruz, the Kurdish New Year and the first day of the Kurdish calendar, falls on the Spring Equinox — typically March 20 or 21 in the Gregorian calendar. It is one of the most important cultural celebrations for Kurdish, Persian, and other communities in the region.
No. While both are solar calendars that begin on Nowruz, they have different epoch years. The Persian/Solar Hijri calendar counts years from the Hijra (622 CE), while the Kurdish calendar counts from approximately 700 BCE. The month names are also different — the Kurdish calendar uses Kurdish month names rather than Persian ones.
This converter uses the standard offset of 700 years between the Gregorian and Kurdish calendars, with the Kurdish year beginning on Nowruz (March 20/21). Minor variations of one day may occur around the exact equinox date due to astronomical differences year to year.
Yes. Select 'Kurdish → Gregorian', enter the Kurdish year, month, and day, and the calculator will return the corresponding Gregorian date along with the weekday name.
