The period mentioned in Article 200 of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC) shall be calculated according to the calendar year, month, day and hour.
There are two ways to calculate the period in the Civil Code:
1, natural calculation method, that is, the actual elapsed time is the time during calculation. For example, from 5 pm on September 9 to September 16 am 10, the time is not bad;
2. Calendar calculation method, that is, taking the year, month and day specified in the calendar as the calculation unit, whether the leap year is 365 days or the month is 30 days. Although the calendar calculation method is not accurate, it is quite convenient. According to the regulations, there are two ways to calculate the period. The statutory or designated period is mostly calculated by calendar, while the agreed period allows the parties to choose. If there is no agreed calculation method, it is assumed that the agreed term is determined by calendar calculation.
Second, what are the legal provisions of the time limit?
The period of Article 201 of the Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC) shall be calculated according to the year, month and day, and the starting date shall be counted from the next day.
If the period is counted in hours, it shall be counted from the time stipulated by law or agreed by the parties.
Article 202 If the period is calculated by year and month, the last day of the period shall be the corresponding day of the due month; If there is no corresponding date, the end of the month is the last day of the period.
