The Government of Pakistan has declared a two-day public holiday on 20th and 21st March 2026 for Eid-u-Fitr, according to an official notification issued by the Cabinet Division with the approval of the Prime Minister.
The holidays will apply to government offices that operate on both five- and six-day workweeks. As a result, government employees will get four days off for Eid celebrations.
Additionally, 22nd March will be a regular Sunday holiday, followed by 23rd March, which is Pakistan Day, also being a public holiday. The move ensures that federal employees can observe the religious and national occasions without work obligations.
This announcement comes ahead of the Eid festivities, allowing families to plan celebrations and gatherings accordingly.
