I respect wanting or needing to do this with just the builtin datetime module. For everyone else, I recommend relativedelta from the dateutil package: https://dateutil.readthedocs.io/en/stable/relativedelta.html https://dateutil.readthedocs.io/en/stable/relativedelta.html e.g.: >>> from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta >>> date = datetime.utcnow().date() >>> date datetime.date(2020, 2, 29) >>> date + relativedelta(years=1) datetime.date(2021, 2, 28)
