This record is a draft: it has not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on it for compliance decisions. Help improve it (see CONTRIBUTING.md).

Calendar date written as day, month and four-digit year separated by slashes, for example 25/12/2024, as in the United Kingdom and France. The United States writes the month first in the same shape (date_mdy_slash), so a value whose first two numbers are both 12 or less, such as 05/06/2024, can be read either way.
