National standard format is yyyy-mm-dd. [161] dd.mm.yyyy format is used in some places where it is required by EU regulations, for example for best-before dates on food [162] and on driver's licenses. d/m format is used casually, when the year is obvious from the context, and for date ranges, e.g. 28-31/8 for 28–31 August.

The military date notation is similar to the date notation in British English but is read cardinally (e.g. "Nineteen July") rather than ordinally (e.g. "The nineteenth of July"). [citation needed] Weeks are generally referred to by the date of some day within that week (e.g., "the week of May 25"), rather than by a week number. Many holidays ...
<date formatting style> controls the date format in which the result is to be emitted. Recognized values for the second parameter are: DMY gives d mmmm yyyy (e.g. 31 May 2007).

Norway uses three date systems: DD.MM.YYYY (e.g., 24.12.2006 for Christmas Eve, or 01.05.2006 for Labour Day) is by far the most common system, and is the one recommended by the Language Council of Norway. The use of strokes and hyphens are also common, especially in handwriting (e.g. 24/12-2005).

Alternatively, {{Date table sorting}} does this automatically, and is recommended in ...

The exception is that in the no-no table the formats DD-MM-YYYY and MM-DD-YYYY are mentioned, and these are directly adjacent to examples of ...
