birth dates

When lives began

Birth dates are the calendar dates on which people were born.

The term appears in forms, records, and identification documents: Please provide your birth date.

Birth date and birthdate function identically, though the two-word form is more common in official contexts.

The plural typically refers to multiple people's dates rather than one person having multiple: We collected birth dates from all applicants.
