How to say “When is the assignment due?” in Spanish

Ask when an assignment must be submitted.

¿Cuándo hay que entregar la tarea?

When is the assignment due?

Check both the date and the submission method if necessary.

Use it in three situations

  1. In class

    ¿Cuándo hay que entregar la tarea?

    When is the assignment due?

  2. Checking homework

    ¿Tenemos que entregar esto mañana?

    Do we need to hand this in tomorrow?

  3. Planning study time

    ¿A qué hora es la fecha límite de entrega?

    What time is the deadline?

What to watch for

Due describes the submission deadline, rather than when the task began.

Read the whole expression before replacing a detail. The natural wording may use a different order or construction from the English sentence.

A note on speaking Spanish

These guides use broadly understandable Latin American Spanish. Tú is familiar and usted is respectful or formal, with important regional variation. Me gustaría and ¿podría …? are useful for considerate requests.

Keep accent marks and opening question marks. Some regions choose different everyday words. Follow the complete example rather than substituting English words one by one, especially with pronouns and expressions of preference.

Keep practicing
