The imperial system of units was the official system of units of the United Kingdom beginning in 1824.

The system was used across the nations of the British Empire. During the 20^th century, most of those nations became independent and switched to the International System of Units.

The Imperial system is also being phased out in the United Kingdom since the Weights and Measures Act of 1985 but remains widely used.

The units designated as "Imperial" units in this converter are the units defined in the Weights and Measures Act of 1963. For pre-1963 units with the same name see "Historical" units.
