It is currently fully supported in Chrome, Edge, and Firefox, and is expected to reach full availability across browsers before the summer of 2026.

Opera and Safari Support
Opera support will probably appear 1-3 browser cycles after Chromium, which often means a few months later.
The implementation is actively in development and can be tested today in Safari Technology Preview by enabling the --use-temporal runtime flag.
Polyfill
Until Opera and Safari supports Temporal natively, you can use the official polyfill:
