One birth date gives you all three dates: the day you turn 59 (your last working day) and the start and end of one year of PRL. For example, someone born on 15 May 1968 works last on 15 May 2027, with PRL from 16 May 2027 to 15 May 2028.
Pick from the calendar, or type day/month/year (e.g. 15/05/1968)
PRL start date
16 May 2027
Last working day: 15 May 2027
Date of birth
15 May 1968
Turns 59 / last working day
15 May 2027
PRL starts
16 May 2027
PRL ends
15 May 2028
Born on 15 May 1968, your last working day is 15 May 2027; PRL runs from 16 May 2027 to 15 May 2028.
How this was calculated
Date of birth 15 May 1968 + 59 years = 59th birthday 15 May 2027 — the last working day.
PRL starts the day after the last working day: 15 May 2027 → 16 May 2027.
One year of leave ends on start + 1 year − 1 day = 16 May 2027 → 15 May 2028.
For a 29 February birthday, 28 February is used in non-leap years.
Calculated with the general 59-year rule for government service — judges, universities or services with their own rules may differ; check your office order.
Pick your date of birth (usually the one in your service book or SSC certificate).
The result shows the day you turn 59 — your last working day — plus your PRL start and end dates.

How it’s calculated
The day you turn 59 = your last working day; one year of PRL starts the next day
Date of birth + 59 years = your 59th birthday, the last working day. A 29 February birth counts as 28 February in non-leap years.
PRL starts = the day after the last working day.
PRL ends = start date + 1 year − 1 day.
The general retirement age in government service is 59 (The Public Servants (Retirement) Act, 1974); up to one year of PRL comes from section 7 of the same Act.
Example
Example: born 15 May 1968
Turns 59 / last working day: 15 May 2027
PRL starts: 16 May 2027
PRL ends: 15 May 2028
So PRL runs from 16 May 2027 to 15 May 2028.

What to know in Bangladesh
The general 59-year rule: add 59 to the date of birth and you have the last working day.
Exceptions exist: judges, university teachers or services with their own rules may retire at a different age — the office order is final.
Leave must be admissible: PRL depends on leave at your credit; without enough saved leave the full year may not apply — check the service book.
More: encashment and pay during PRL
Leave encashment: earned leave at credit is commonly said to be encashable up to 18 months of basic pay — it depends on the leave balance and office rules, so confirm from the order.
Pay during PRL: dues during PRL are generally based on the last basic pay — confirm the exact figure from the accounts section of your office.
This calculator only computes dates, never money amounts.
Frequently asked questions
Are PRL and LPR the same thing?
Essentially, yes. LPR (leave preparatory to retirement) is the old name; under section 7 of The Public Servants (Retirement) Act, 1974 it is now PRL (post-retirement leave), and every LPR reference in law reads as PRL.
Is 59 the retirement age for everyone?
It is the general rule for government service. Judges, university teachers or services with their own rules may retire at a different age — your office's rules are final.
When does PRL start?
This calculator treats the day you turn 59 as your last working day and starts one year of PRL the next day. If your office order says otherwise, that applies.
What if my birthday is on 29 February?
In years without 29 February, the birthday counts as 28 February. Someone born on 29 February 1968 turns 59 on 28 February 2027, so PRL starts on 1 March 2027.
Can saved-up leave be encashed instead?
Earned leave at credit is commonly said to be encashable up to 18 months of basic pay. It depends on your leave balance and office rules — confirm from the order.
Is this result final?
No. It is a helpful calculation; the retirement date is always fixed by the service book, the service rules and the office order.
