2026 Working Days Calendar for Uzbekistan, Asia

⚖️ Legal Regulations

The Labor Code of Uzbekistan, specifically Article 208, provides the legal basis for shifting weekends when public holidays fall on them. This allows the government to issue annual decrees establishing compensatory days off and special working days. However, these shifts do not apply to essential services like continuous production, daily public services, or rotational work.

📰 News

A presidential decree signed on December 24, 2025, established the official holiday and weekend shift schedule for 2026. It aims to facilitate rest and tourism. Notably, the decree accounts for the tentative overlap of Navruz and Ramadan Hayit (Eid al-Fitr) in 2026, which may affect the final holiday configuration.

💡 Insights

A common practice is to declare compensatory days off when a public holiday falls on a weekend, often creating extended breaks. The government also strategically plans these shifts to promote domestic tourism. The workweek can be either five or six days, leading to specific 'restricted holidays' that apply only to one group or the other.
