About this calendar
In 2027, Costa Rica observes 11 public holidays, beginning with New Year's Day on and ending with Christmas Day on . These are official days on which government offices, banks, schools, and most businesses are closed.
Holidays here include a mix of fixed dates (such as New Year's Day and national independence days) and variable dates (such as religious holidays that follow lunar or ecclesiastical calendars). Variable holidays may shift by 1–2 days from year to year.
Costa Rica shifts several of its holidays to the nearest Monday to create long weekends, a reform phased in from 2020. The standard week is 48 statutory hours, though office practice is typically Monday to Friday.
