Pluto, as a member of our Solar System, was formed at the same time as the rest of the planets and the Sun during the Formation and evolution of the Solar System from the protoplanetary disk around the Sun.


That means the age for Pluto is approximately 4.46 to 4.6 billion years old. Without actually going there and finding some rock samples to get radioisotope ages from, though, only a very general age range can be given.

Assumedly the same as the other, major planets in the solar system, with a small percentage of variance. All evidence so far points to this.

Pluto was discovered in 1930, but has evidently existed for as long as the rest of the solar system, within a small percentage range. It has been in a stable orbit for about the same length of time as the major planets.

Its age is similar to all the other planets, including ours because the whole solar system was created at the same time. but not exactly, the same time.
