Worldwide Holidays Countries Directory
Pakistan observes a mix of fixed national commemorations and Islamic religious holidays. Fixed civic dates such as Pakistan Day and Independence Day appear on the civil calendar every year, while Eid and other lunar observances depend on moon sighting and official announcements.
PK / PAKCounts come from stored rows only. Tentative and estimated dates are shown separately from confirmed public holidays.
Public holiday practice combines nationwide commemorative days with religious festivals. Islamic holiday dates can shift by a day between localities depending on the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee and provincial notifications. Always confirm the final gazette or employer notice before travel or payroll planning.
Widely recognized national days include Kashmir Solidarity Day (5 February), Pakistan Day (23 March), Labour Day (1 May), Independence Day (14 August), Iqbal Day (9 November), and Quaid-e-Azam Day (25 December). Our Pakistan calendar lists these when curated for the selected year.
Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, Ashura, and Eid Milad-un-Nabi are major observances. Until an official announcement is recorded, any dates we show for these events are labeled Estimated or Tentative — not confirmed public-holiday declarations.
Most listed national holidays apply nationwide. Local or provincial holidays may exist beyond this dataset; absence from our list does not prove a local holiday does not exist.
Pakistan rows for 2027 currently come from curated editorial seeds plus any future official citations stored on each holiday. Provider APIs (Nager.Date / OpenHolidays) do not cover Pakistan.
