About this calendar
Holiday data is sourced from the open date-holidays library, which aggregates official government calendars across 100+ countries. Dates marked "public" are nationally observed; "bank" entries are observed by financial institutions but may not be public-sector holidays; "observance" entries are cultural or religious dates that are not statutory closures.
Regional holidays observed in specific United Arab Emirates states or provinces are not yet distinguished — they appear in the list but may not be observed nationwide. Always confirm critical scheduling against official local sources.
