I work with international dates a lot in my day job too and for years I've used UNC dates exclusively - saves confusion, especially in computer systems. If I can't UNC use format, I use dd-MMM-yyyy i.e. 18-Oct-2017.

In UNC format, today is 2017-10-18.

*edit* strictly speaking its not UNC, it's ISO 8601....
