The xs:date type stores
individual Gregorian calendar dates in the format
CCYY-MM-DD, where
CC is two or more digits for the
century, YY is the year (00–99),
MM is the month (01–12), and
DD is the day (01–31). For years before
1, a negative sign may appear before the century. Acceptable dates
include 1999-11-25, -0044-03-15, and 2020-01-01.
A time zone relative to Coordinated Universal Time, also
known as Greenwich Time or UTC, may also be added. If there is a
time zone, the format is ±hh:mm, wherein
a plus or minus sign is followed by a two-digit value for hours,
then a colon, and then a two-digit value for minutes. You can also
use Z in place of the time
zone, indicating UTC. Valid dates with a time zone include
1999-11-25+05:00, -0044-03-15-10:30, and 2020-01-01Z.
