There is no universally agreed upon date. Some argue that it ended on Aug. 14, 1945 (V-J Day, which stands for Victory over Japan Day) instead of Japan's actual surrender on Sep. 2, 1945. In some European histories, it ended May 8, 1945 (V-E Day, which stands for Victory in Europe Day). The end date depends on where you stand.

September 2, 1945, known as VJ Day, when the Allied nations accepted the surrender of Imperial Japan, aboard the battleship USS Missouri, anchored in Tokyo Bay. This is the official date for the ending of World War 2.

September 2, 1945 Japan officially signed the treaty ending the conflict of World War 2. Official conflict ended with the bombing of Nagasaki in mid August, though many Japanese soldiers stranded in islands of the Pacific continued to fight as they did not know the war had ended.
