Egypt — Январь 2026

Egypt businesses have 18 working days in Январь 2026 — that's 31 calendar days minus 10 weekend days and 3 weekday public holidays (Christmas Day (Orthodox), Revolution Day 2011 / National Police Day, Day off for Revolution Day January 25). The depth of Northern-hemisphere winter and Southern-hemisphere summer typically governs the work-rhythm in Январь; project deadlines and payroll cycles in Egypt should account for the holiday days listed above. January opens the global calendar with New Year's Day observed in nearly every country and several civic holidays unique to the southern hemisphere. For pay-period planning, Январь 2026 contains 3 full work-weeks plus 3 additional weekdays, useful when scheduling milestones or quarterly reviews. The working-day count above counts substitute days as a single deduction — it does not double-count when a public holiday falling on a weekend is moved to a Monday or Friday. Use this figure as the authoritative baseline for Egypt payroll-period calculations.
