How to Change Your Birthday on YouTube

Updated on:

Use this interactive demo to learn how to update your date of birth on your Google account for YouTube.

Quick summary

You can change your YouTube birthday by updating your date of birth in Google Account settings under Personal info. Correcting your birthday removes age restrictions and restores access to previously blocked content on YouTube.


Steps

  1. Go to myaccount.google.com and sign in with the Google account linked to your YouTube.
  2. Click Personal info in the left sidebar.
  3. Under the Personal info section, click Birthday.
  4. Click the Birthday menu next to your current date of birth.
  5. Update the Day, Month, and Year fields to reflect your correct date of birth, and click Save.
  6. Return to youtube.com and attempt to access the age-restricted video or content that was previously blocked to confirm access is now granted.

📌 Why this matters

Your YouTube birthday is tied directly to your Google Account and controls access to age-restricted content across the platform. If your date of birth is incorrect, YouTube may block videos, features, or entire categories of content without explanation. Updating your birthday through Google Account settings is the only official way to fix age verification issues on YouTube. Getting this right ensures your account accurately reflects your age and restores full access to content you're entitled to watch.
