This page uses ISO 8601 week numbers: weeks start on Monday, and week 1 is the week containing the year's first Thursday (equivalently, the week of January 4). Under this system a year has 52 or 53 weeks — 2026 has 53.
=ISOWEEKNUM(TODAY()) returns the ISO week number (the one shown here). =WEEKNUM(TODAY()) uses the US convention, where week 1 starts on January 1 and weeks start on Sunday, so it can differ by one. Both work in Excel and Google Sheets.
2026 has 53 ISO weeks. Most years have 52; a year has 53 when it starts on a Thursday (or on a Wednesday in a leap year).
