Defines the national public holidays, their Hijri or fixed dates, the Friday/holiday substitution rule, and expressly classifies Mawlid, Isra and Miraj, and 7 July as observances without official leave.
Office arrangements

History
Law No. 2 of 2000 makes 9 through 13 Dhu al-Hijjah official leave. Gregorian dates depend on the official lunar determination.
Why it matters
The calendar records nationwide legal leave, not every public commemoration or local closure.
Observance
Customs vary by holiday. Celebration does not create an additional closure day.
Travel and planning
Hours and transport can change around Eid periods and national commemorations. Check current official notices.
Frequently asked questions
Are future Islamic dates confirmed?
No. They remain provisional until an authoritative Yemen announcement establishes the Gregorian dates.
Are extra bridge days included?
No. Announcement-dependent and discretionary closures are omitted unless specifically evidenced.
