In 2027, New Year falls on 1–2 January (Friday, Saturday). Days off: 31 December – 4 January, 5 days.

The Cabinet of Ministers' decision for 2027 is not out yet (it usually comes in December). Fixed holidays are from the Labour Code, the Ramadan and Eid al-Adha dates from the astronomical Hijri calendar, and the moved days from the Code's rule; the decision may add an extra day off.
