agree  Muriel Vasconcellos: These are the most commonly accepted ways. There are many other options. Europeans use "12 Jan 06," which clarifies which is the month and which is the day.

fechas en inglés, en cartas y abreviadas
01/12/2006


Explanation:
The numerical form, if the complete year is required, is 01/12/2006 (that's what the AAAA is requesting, or YYYY in English).
For letters, we write January 12, 2006 and I often see 12 January 2006 (with no commas), especially on forms.
Saludos.
