There are four major dates in the process of a company paying dividends: Declaration date - This is the date on which the board of directors announces to shareholders and the market as a whole that the company will pay a dividend. Ex-date or Ex-dividend date - On (or after) this date the security trades without its dividend. If you buy a dividend paying stock one day before the ex-dividend you will still get the dividend, but if you buy on the ex-dividend date, you won't get the dividend.
