Hi @Mansour_Dalir ,

The PersianCalendar Class document already provide the code that can convert Date or DateTime to a Persian Calendar datetime.

        Dim pc As New PersianCalendar()
        Dim thisDate As Date = Date.Now

        ' Display the current date using the Gregorian and Persian calendars. 
        Console.WriteLine("Today in the Gregorian Calendar:  {0:dddd}, {0}", thisDate)
        Console.WriteLine("Today in the Persian Calendar:    {0}, {1}/{2}/{3} {4}:{5}:{6}",  
                      pc.GetDayOfWeek(thisDate),
                      pc.GetMonth(thisDate),
                      pc.GetDayOfMonth(thisDate), 
                      pc.GetYear(thisDate),
                      pc.GetHour(thisDate),
                      pc.GetMinute(thisDate),
                      pc.GetSecond(thisDate))
        Console.WriteLine()
        
        ' Create a date using the Gregorian calendar.
        thisDate = New DateTime(2013, 5, 28, 10, 35, 0)
        Console.WriteLine("Gregorian Calendar:  {0:D} ", thisDate)
        Console.WriteLine("Persian Calendar:    {0}, {1}/{2}/{3} {4}:{5}:{6}", 
                      pc.GetDayOfWeek(thisDate),
                      pc.GetMonth(thisDate),
                      pc.GetDayOfMonth(thisDate), 
                      pc.GetYear(thisDate),
                      pc.GetHour(thisDate),
                      pc.GetMinute(thisDate),
                      pc.GetSecond(thisDate))
        Console.WriteLine()

Best Regards.
