About Global Holidays
Global Holidays is a static planning reference for public holiday dates, annual calendars and source notes. It is not a government authority, employer or legal adviser.

countries and regions
Purpose
Built for planning, with visible evidence
What the site provides
Annual public holiday tables, calendar markings, duration and scope notes, downloadable ICS calendars, comparison tables and reusable CSV data.
Who it serves
Travelers, international teams, HR planners and anyone coordinating dates across countries. Final payroll, leave and closure decisions must use the relevant authority or employer policy.
How the site is maintained
Pages are generated from structured datasets, with selected priority markets checked against linked government publications and policy guidance.
What the site does not claim
A listed public holiday does not automatically mean paid leave, a bank closure or a school closure. Regional and sector rules can differ from nationwide dates.
