The play might plausibly be dated to 1595. It can't be any later than 1596, or any earlier than 1591.

Hello.

There is no exact answer to your question since we do not know exactly when Romeo and Juliet was settled, or when it was written. I can tell you that it is believed that the play might be dated to 1595. One can inffer this thanks to the weapons, the feasts and the description of the place given by the author.

I hope this helps you
