Falling on a weekend in 2026: Day of establishment of Brčko District (Sunday, 8 Mar) and International Labor Day (Saturday, 2 May).

Not a public holiday in every region, but in Brčko distrikt: Day of establishment of Brčko District and Day of establishment of Brčko District (observed).

For comparison: in 2026 the number of public holidays ranges from 12 (Brčko distrikt) to 21 (Federacija Bosne i Hercegovine and Republika Srpska). Brčko distrikt is among the regions with the fewest public holidays.

Days marked "observed" are substitute days off when a holiday falls on a weekend. Holidays based on a lunar calendar can shift by a day once the official announcement is made.

Dates are generated from the open-source library python-holidays and automatically cross-checked against Nager.Date and the public Google Calendar holiday calendars; every holiday on a working day must be confirmed by a second source. Official announcements take precedence, especially for holidays that depend on the moon or are declared at short notice.
