Cyprus has no statutory substitute days: a public holiday that falls on a Saturday or Sunday is not moved to a weekday, so the following Monday stays a working day in these counts. These counts include the days on both official 2026 lists, the Central Bank's bank holidays and the public holidays of the Securities and Exchange Commission; a private employer's days off depend on the collective agreement or the contract. Easter Tuesday (banks only), Christmas Eve (public bodies) and Holy Saturday are listed but not counted.
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.
