Use the telerik radDateTimePicker and write this code , after InitializeComponent(), and Instead of "fa-IR" use your culture.

Application.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("fa-IR"); 
radDateTimePicker1.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
radDateTimePicker1.CustomFormat = Application.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern;

Based on previous solution, I think the better is:

dateTimePicker.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
dateTimePicker.CustomFormat = Application.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern;

I think there is detour.

  1. set event handler "ValueChanged"

  2. code

    dateTimePicker.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
string[] formats = dateTimePicker.Value.GetDateTimeFormats(Application.CurrentCulture);
dateTimePicker.CustomFormat = formats[0];

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("fr");
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture;

It doesn't seem to be possible to change the culture. See this KB article.

For DateTimePicker

dtp.Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Custom;
dtp.CustomFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd"; // or the format you prefer
