It depends how you format the date. If you do mm/dd/yyyy format

mm = month

dd = day

yyyy = year

then the last palindromic date was September 10th, 2019 since this would be written as 9/10/2019 in the mm/dd/yyyy format

Taking out the slash symbols, we have the number 9102019 which is the same when we reverse the digits.

The answer will be different if you have the date format as dd/mm/yyyy

Answer:

The previous palindrome date in all formats came 909 years ago on 11/11/1111. The next will come in 101 years on 12/12/2121 and after that there will not be another until 03/03/3030.
