Birth year by age

What Year Were You Born If You Are 4?

If you are 4 years old in 2026, you were born in 2021 or 2022, depending on whether your birthday has passed.

If you are 4 years old in 2026, your birth year is:

2021 or 2022

Born in 2022 if your birthday has already occurred this year; otherwise, born in 2021.

What year were you born if you are 4?

Subtract 4 from 2026. The result is 2022. If your birthday is still coming up in 2026, your birth year is one year earlier: 2021.

Why the answer can be two different years

Age changes on a birthday, not on January 1. Without your birth month and day, both 2021 and 2022 are possible. Use the exact calculator to resolve the date precisely.
