How this service works
Verified, CLDR-versioned locale formatting for ~700 locales: currency amounts, numbers, dates and the raw rules — plus a verify endpoint to check your own output. Formatting per CLDR conventions — informational, not legal advice.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the locale-formatted date/datetime string (e.g. '31.12.26'), the resolved locale tag that was actually applied, and the hour cycle used (e.g. 'h23').
Example use cases
Localized invoice date display
“I need to display the date 2025-07-15 on an invoice for a customer in Japan — can you format it the way Japanese users expect, using ja-JP locale?”
Multilingual calendar event rendering
“Format the datetime 2025-09-01T14:30:00 for a user in Egypt using the ar-EG locale, with the Africa/Cairo timezone and a full date style and short time style.”
Internationalized e-commerce checkout date
“Show the expected delivery date 2025-08-20 in the format Swiss German users (de-CH) would see it, in the Europe/Zurich timezone with a medium date style.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://localeformat.com/v1/datetime?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative, CLDR-versioned locale formatting for dates and datetimes across a wide range of locales (~700) with support for timezone resolution, date style, and time style — especially when accuracy against the CLDR standard matters for internationalized user interfaces, documents, or data pipelines. Prefer it over rolling your own Intl.DateTimeFormat logic when you need a verified, versioned, and consistent server-side result.
