- By default, write dates as March 2 or October 27, 2020.
- Don’t include ‘th’ or any commas.
- Only include the year if it’s relevant for the user.
- Numerical dates are not preferred as they can be confusing.
- If space is an issue, you can use a 3-letter abbreviation for the months.
- Don’t use a full stop after the month.
- For date ranges, use ‘to’ instead of a hyphen as it’s easier for screen reader users to understand.
- If your date range is in the same month, still include the month both times.
