About this calendar

In 2026, Egypt observes 22 public holidays, beginning with Christmas Day (Orthodox) on and ending with Day off for Armed Forces 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.

Egypt's weekend falls on Friday and Saturday, so the working week runs Sunday to Thursday for offices and banks. Many shops trade seven days regardless.
