Ramadan Eid and Nowruz Give Uzbeks Four Days Off
Uzbekistan
In Uzbekistan, citizens will have up to four consecutive days off for Ramadan Eid and Nowruz.
March 20 (Friday) is a holiday for Ramadan Eid, March 21 (Saturday) is for Nowruz, and March 22 (Sunday) is also a day off. Additionally, March 23 (Monday) will be a holiday for employees with a five-day workweek because one of the public holidays coincides with a weekend. For those working a six-day week, March 23 remains a regular workday.
Traditionally, the date of Ramadan Eid is announced by the Muslim Board, after which the President issues a decree on official holidays.
Thus, most Uzbeks will be able to enjoy extended holidays for family gatherings, rest, and participation in traditional events, while workplaces maintain schedules for employees on a six-day workweek.
