Roman Numeral Date Converter
Turn any date — a wedding day, an anniversary, a child's birth — into Roman numerals in the classic engraved format: 12·25·2024 becomes XII·XXV·MMXXIV. Roman numeral dates appear on invitation suites, wedding bands, tattoos and family wall art precisely because they look timeless.
Type your date below and the numerals render instantly. The separator dot (·) is the traditional engraved style, but hyphens or plain spacing are equally correct — the numerals themselves are what matter.

Frequently asked questions
How do you write a date in Roman numerals?
Convert each part of the date separately: the month, the day, and the year each become Roman numerals, traditionally joined by dots. June 15, 2025 becomes VI·XV·MMXXV.
What is my wedding date in Roman numerals?
Type the date into the converter — for example, September 12, 2026 becomes IX·XII·MMXXVI. Couples usually engrave it with raised dots between the groups.
Are Roman numeral date tattoos done in a specific order?
Most common is month·day·year (the American order), but day·month·year (European) is equally valid — choose the order that matches how you say the date, and keep it consistent across the design.
Do Roman numerals have a year zero problem?
No — the calendar simply counts years forward, and every year from 1 to 3999 converts cleanly. All modern dates fit comfortably.
