Sometimes yogurt is still fine shortly after the date, but the printed date is not the only thing that matters. Storage and signs of spoilage matter more.
Can you eat yogurt after the expiration date?
TL;DR
Sometimes. Yogurt may still be usable after the date, but do not eat it if it smells bad, looks moldy, or was stored poorly.

Check the yogurt before eating it. Mold, a bad smell, fizzing, unusual swelling, or a strange texture are reasons to throw it away.
Yogurt that stayed sealed and refrigerated is more likely to be okay than yogurt that was opened or left out. Once opened, it should be used more carefully.
If you are unsure, it is not worth gambling over a small container of yogurt.
Yogurt can sometimes last past the date, but your eyes, nose, and storage history matter.
