Laravel 13 requires PHP 8.3 or newer. Laravel 12 supports PHP 8.2 to 8.5. For the end dates of other PHP versions, use the php.net table linked below.

How support works

Laravel ships a major release around the first quarter of each year. Each major gets 18 months of bug fixes and 2 years of security fixes. After the security date, a Laravel app on that major gets no further framework fixes, and a security questionnaire from a client or a composer audit report is where teams usually notice.
