Malaysia public holidays 2026: questions
How many public holidays are there in Malaysia in 2026?
14 national public holidays apply in every state and federal territory: Chinese New Year (Tahun Baharu Cina), Tuesday 17 February; Chinese New Year (second day), Wednesday 18 February; Additional Hari Raya Puasa holiday, Friday 20 March; Hari Raya Puasa (Eid al-Fitr), Saturday 21 March; Hari Raya Puasa (second day), Sunday 22 March; Labour Day (Hari Pekerja), Friday 1 May; Hari Raya Haji (Eid al-Adha), Wednesday 27 May; Wesak Day, Sunday 31 May; Official Birthday of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Monday 1 June; Awal Muharram (Islamic New Year), Wednesday 17 June; Prophet Muhammad's Birthday (Maulidur Rasul), Tuesday 25 August; National Day (Hari Kebangsaan), Monday 31 August; Malaysia Day, Wednesday 16 September; Christmas Day (Hari Krismas), Friday 25 December. Each state adds its own, so the number of public holiday dates is 18 to 21 depending on the state: Johor 21, Kedah 19, Kelantan 20, Melaka 19, Negeri Sembilan 20, Pahang 19, Penang 20, Perak 19, Perlis 19, Sabah 20, Sarawak 19, Selangor 21, Terengganu 21, Kuala Lumpur 18, Labuan 19, Putrajaya 18. In Sabah, Sarawak, Kuala Lumpur, Labuan and Putrajaya two holidays fall on the same day, so each has one holiday more than dates. Replacement days come on top.
Which states have a Friday and Saturday weekend?
Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu rest on Friday and Saturday; Sunday is a working day there. Every other state and the federal territories rest on Saturday and Sunday (the Ministry of Education lists the same two groups for schools). Each state page counts working days and long weekends with its own weekend.
What happens when a public holiday falls on the weekend?
Under the Holidays Act 1951 (section 3), a public holiday on the weekly holiday moves to the next day, or to the day after if that is already a holiday. Sabah's Holidays Ordinance moves a Sunday holiday to the next day; Sarawak's Public Holidays Ordinance to the following Monday. A holiday on a Saturday gets no replacement day. In Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu, where Friday is the weekly holiday, any replacement day for a Friday or Saturday holiday is announced by the state, so none is drawn. Replacement days follow from the law and are often not announced separately, so they are dashed here as expected until a notice confirms them.
Which replacement days (cuti ganti) are there in 2026?
Monday 2 February (Federal Territory Day), only in Labuan, set by the Public Service Department (JPA) for civil servants; Monday 2 February (Federal Territory Day and Thaipusam), only in Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya, set by the Public Service Department (JPA) for civil servants; Monday 2 February (Thaipusam), only in Johor, Negeri Sembilan, Penang, Perak and Selangor, expected by law; Monday 23 March (Hari Raya Puasa), in every state except Johor, Kedah, Kelantan, Melaka and Terengganu, expected by law; Tuesday 24 March (Hari Raya Puasa), only in Johor and Melaka, expected by law; Monday 18 May (the Raja of Perlis's Birthday), only in Perlis, expected by law; Tuesday 2 June (Wesak Day), in every state except Kedah, Kelantan, Sabah, Sarawak, Terengganu and Labuan, announced by the Labour Department (JTKSM); Tuesday 2 June (Wesak Day and Kaamatan), only in Sabah and Labuan, expected by law; Wednesday 3 June (Wesak Day), only in Sarawak, appointed by Swk. L.N. 202/2026, as Wesak Day fell on Sunday 31 May; Thursday 4 June (Gawai Dayak), only in Sarawak, appointed by Swk. L.N. 202/2026, as the first day of Gawai fell on the Agong's Birthday; Monday 26 October (the Selangor Silver Jubilee holiday), only in Selangor, announced by the Labour Department (JTKSM); Monday 9 November (Deepavali), in every state except Kedah, Kelantan, Sarawak and Terengganu, expected by law. Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu: none drawn (their weekly holiday is Friday; any replacement day is announced by the state).
When are Hari Raya Puasa, Hari Raya Haji, Chinese New Year and Deepavali in 2026?
Hari Raya Puasa: Friday 20 March, Saturday 21 March and Sunday 22 March; Monday 23 March only in Melaka. Hari Raya Haji (Hari Raya Qurban): Wednesday 27 May; Thursday 28 May only in Kedah, Kelantan, Perlis and Terengganu. Chinese New Year: Tuesday 17 February and Wednesday 18 February. Deepavali: Sunday 8 November in every state except Sarawak. The government list marks Awal Ramadan (Thursday 19 February) and Deepavali (Sunday 8 November) «Tertakluk kepada perubahan» (subject to change), so they are dashed here until the date is confirmed. The Islamic dates follow the Keeper of the Rulers' Seal's announcement after the moon sighting and can move by a day. Hari Raya Puasa (Saturday 21 March and Sunday 22 March) and Hari Raya Haji (Wednesday 27 May and Thursday 28 May) were confirmed that way (RTM reports).
What are the long weekends (cuti panjang) in 2026?
5 long weekends with the national holidays only: Hari Raya Puasa, Fri, 20 Mar – Sun, 22 Mar (3 days); Labour Day, Fri, 1 May – Sun, 3 May (3 days); Wesak Day and the Agong's Birthday, Sat, 30 May – Mon, 1 Jun (3 days); National Day, Sat, 29 Aug – Mon, 31 Aug (3 days); Christmas, Fri, 25 Dec – Sun, 27 Dec (3 days). Each state has more with its own holidays, weekend and replacement days: Johor 10, Kedah 5, Kelantan 3, Melaka 8, Negeri Sembilan 8, Pahang 8, Penang 7, Perak 7, Perlis 7, Sabah 8, Sarawak 6, Selangor 9, Terengganu 4, Kuala Lumpur 7, Labuan 7, Putrajaya 7.
What is a cuti peristiwa?
A cuti peristiwa is a one-off holiday a state declares under the Holidays Act 1951 (section 9), for example for a royal occasion or a sports win, usually at short notice. In 2026 there were 5: Johor, Monday 25 May; Johor, Monday 13 July; Negeri Sembilan, Monday 3 August; Selangor, Tuesday 1 September; Selangor, Sunday 25 October. The Labour Department (JTKSM) notes that they are optional for private employers.
Do private sector employees get every public holiday?
In Peninsular Malaysia and Labuan, private employers follow the Employment Act 1955, section 60D. The Labour Department (JTKSM) explains it in its notices: five paid public holidays are compulsory and the employer chooses six more from the gazetted list; a paid holiday that falls on a rest day moves to the next working day, and with the employee's agreement one of the six chosen holidays can be swapped for another day (the five compulsory ones cannot). Special state holidays (cuti peristiwa) are optional for private employers. Sabah and Sarawak have their own labour laws. This calendar shows the public holiday list; your employer's holiday list may differ.
When are the school holidays in 2026?
School holidays are not on this calendar. The Ministry of Education (KPM) publishes them in its school calendar (Kalendar Akademik), which also lists the two weekend groups.
Can I print the 2026 calendar for free?
Yes. Three free A4 PDFs for All of Malaysia and for every state: a year calendar (landscape and portrait) and a monthly calendar of 12 pages, with every holiday written in full and weeks starting on Sunday. The Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu files mark Friday and Saturday as the weekend.
How many working days are there in 2026?
Between 241 and 247 depending on the state (Johor 241; Kedah 247), counting the state's own holidays and replacement days with its weekend. With the national holidays only, Monday to Friday: 250.
Sources and method
All sources checked 21 October 2026.
Public holiday dates come from the Prime Minister's Department (BKPP) lists for each year and the later federal and state gazettes and notices linked below; replacement days not announced separately are worked out from the Holidays Act 1951 and the Sabah and Sarawak ordinances. The layout, the PDFs, the working-day counts and the long-weekend ideas are made by ToolNeko; this is not a government publication.
Working days: the five days outside the weekend (Monday to Friday; Sunday to Thursday in Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu) minus the public holidays and replacement days of the page; the All of Malaysia page counts the national holidays only. Replacement days (cuti ganti): a holiday on the weekly holiday moves to the next day that is not already a holiday (Holidays Act 1951, section 3); in Sabah a Sunday holiday moves to the next day, and in Sarawak to the following Monday for the days the ordinance's First Schedule lists above its note. Where no notice confirms a replacement day it is dashed as expected. In Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu a holiday on a Friday or Saturday gets a replacement day only if the state announces one, so none is drawn. Some workplaces also work on Saturdays or half days, and private employers follow the Employment Act 1955. Long weekends: three or more days off in a row with a public holiday; leave plans: the fewest leave days that join a holiday to the weekend.
