Understanding Tunisia public holidays
TN list from the Nager Public Holidays API, with a country note on regional and legal limits—read before you rely on a single row.
Tunisia’s public calendar often reflects national, Islamic, and a few other commemorative days; civil dates for moveable feasts in the TN set from Nager Public Holidays (date.nager.at) for the selected country code are meant to follow the year’s national mapping. If you are scheduling government services or a wedding at a mufti-registered time, you may need a document beyond a foreign holiday API.
Independence Day, Republic-related commemorations, Labour Day, and Evacuation Day style national dates are typical civil planning markers. Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, and related Islamic observances shift on the Gregorian calendar; the feed shows the API’s civil dates for the year on screen. Ramadan changes daily rhythms for many workplaces even when it is not listed as one long holiday block.
Tunis government and bank calendars usually track proclaimed public holidays more tightly than tourism on the coast or island destinations, which may stay open with reduced staff. Schools layer exam weeks and mid-year breaks on top of national holidays. French-speaking workplaces sometimes use French holiday names in conversation while the civil date follows Tunisian law—read the date column, not only the English label.
Governments can adjust bridge days or fine-tune religious civil dates close to the observance. Refresh the year in AnyCalendar and re-read an official Tunisian year calendar when a legal deadline, visa appointment, or payroll decision depends on a day off. This page does not claim to define labour rights or tax treatment of holiday work.
Common questions (TN)
How often does the public list change for a new year?
Governments can adjust bridge days. Always refresh the year in AnyCalendar and re-read an official year calendar when a legal deadline depends on a day off.
Why might Eid fall on a different weekday than last year?
Islamic holidays follow the lunar calendar and are assigned Gregorian civil dates annually. Do not reuse last year’s weekday for next year’s leave booking without checking the selected year.
Do all employers close on every listed day?
Not always. Sector rules, private schools, and tourism operators can differ from a national public-holiday table. Your contract and employer calendar decide attendance and pay for your role.
Is this the official Tunisian government calendar?
No. It is a third-party list from the Nager service for country code TN, displayed with weekday context. Use official Tunisian sources for binding administrative or legal timing.
