When a public holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, Bulgarian law makes the first working day after it a day off, except for the Easter holidays; these counts include that day, labelled as observed. The Council of Ministers can also declare a one-off non-attendance day under the Labour Code, as it did for 2 January 2026, and these counts include it.

Week by week

January 2026 has 31 days: 9 Saturdays and Sundays, 2 holidays on a weekday and 20 working days. The table splits them by calendar week, Monday to Sunday, cut at the start and end of the month.
