European date format with multiple days

(1) He purchased the items on 8, 9 and 10 May 2013.

(2) Your 1, 12 and 25 May payments are due by Friday 4 July 2013.

(3) The incidents occurred on Thursday 1 June 2000, Tuesday 4 May 2001 and Saturday 24 January 2002.

Are all sentences correctly written in accordance with the European format? I say 'yes' - just looking for confirmation.

Thanks.

victo, there is no 'correct' European format. Different editors use different style guides. I have mentioned this before.

My personal endorsement has no value. I have told you before, I do not claim to be an expert on punctuation. Actually, there are no definitive authorities on punctuation. There are some things that most people would say were unacceptable, but only your publisher's editors can say what is acceptable to them.
