Date of Birth

Capture a respondent’s date of birth with ease.

Use the Date of Birth field to let respondents quickly and reliably enter their date of birth.

Entering a date of birth into the Date of Birth Field in a form

The field is designed specifically for collecting dates of birth, with options to control how dates are entered and displayed.

# Required Date of Birth

Ensure Date of Birth is always completed by making it required with our Smart Validation:

Enabling Required validation for the Date of Birth Field in a form

# Date Configuration

Configure the Date of Birth field to suit your form, including the order in which the day, month and year are displayed.

You can also use Years Ago to limit the available years based on how many years ago the respondent was born, making it easier to collect dates of birth without requiring users to select from an unnecessarily large range of dates.
