[asp.net-mvc] Display DateTime value in dd/mm/yyyy format in Asp.NET MVC

Is it possible to display a DateTime value in dd/mm/yyyy format with the help of HTML Helper methods in Asp.NET MVC? I tried to do this by using some formats in @Html.LabelFor and adding some annotations to the related property like below but it does not make any sense. Any help to solve this problem would be appreciated.

Model:

[DataType(DataType.Date)]
[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", ApplyFormatInEditMode = true)]
public Nullable<System.DateTime> RegistrationDate { get; set; }

It might be too late to answer this in 2019. but I tried all the answers and none worked for me. So I solved it simply this way:

@Html.EditorFor(m => m.SellDateForInstallment, "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", 
               new {htmlAttributes = new { @class = "form-control", @type = "date" } })

EditorFor is what worked for me.

Note that SellDateForInstallment is a Nullable datetime object.

public DateTime? SellDateForInstallment { get; set; } // Model property

All you have to do is apply the format you want in the html helper call, ie.

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.RegistrationDate, "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}")

You don't need to provide the date format in the model class.

Or just use this in your View(Razor page)

@item.ResgistrationhaseDate.ToString(string.Format("dd/MM/yyyy"))

I recommend that don't add date format in your model class

I know this is an older question, but for reference, a really simple way for formatting dates without any data annotations or any other settings is as follows:

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.StartDate, new { @Value = Model.StartDate.ToString("dd-MMM-yyyy") })

The above format can of course be changed to whatever.

You need to use html helper, and you don't need to provide date format in model class. e.x :

@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.ResgistrationhaseDate, "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}")

Since the question was "display" :

@Html.ValueFor(model => model.RegistrationDate, "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}")
