How to count number of visible rows in a filtered list in Excel?

Supposing you have a filtered data table as the below screenshot shown, to count how many rows are displayed, you can do as follows.

Generic Formula

=SUBTOTAL(3,range)

Arguments

Range: The range you will count visible rows.

How to use this formula?

1. Select a blank cell to output the result.

2. Enter the below formula into it and press the Enter key.

=SUBTOTAL(3,B3:B15)

Notes:

1) When a filter is active in range B3:B15, to count the number of visible rows, you can apply this formula:

=SUBTOTAL(3,B3:B15)

2) For a range contains manually hiding rows rather than applying auto filter, to count only visible rows, you can apply this formula:

=SUBTOTAL(103,B3:B15)

How this formula works?

=SUBTOTAL(3,B3:B15)

The SUBTOTAL function is useful for ignoring hidden items in a filtered list or table. It can be used for performing different calculation such as average, count, max and so on.
