What Does 5 Business Days Mean?

When someone says "5 business days," they mean 5 working days — Monday through Friday — excluding weekends and public holidays. This is 1 work week of standard work time.

In calendar days, 5 business days equals approximately 6 days, because weekends (Saturday and Sunday) are skipped. If public holidays fall within this period, it could take even longer.

Common Scenarios for 5 Business Days

• Express shipping: Many carriers offer 5-business-day delivery for domestic packages.
• Processing times: Banks, government agencies, and insurance companies often quote 5 business days for processing applications.
• Deadlines: Legal filings, regulatory submissions, and compliance deadlines often use 5 business day windows.
• Delivery estimates: Online retailers and shipping companies frequently quote 5 business days for delivery.

Tips for Counting Business Days

1. Start counting from the next business day after the event (e.g., order placement).
2. Skip all Saturdays and Sundays.
3. Skip any public holidays in your country.
4. The final count lands on a weekday — that's your target date.
