Holidays/API v2

Holidays for a year

GET/api/v2/holidays/{year}

Good to know. Religious holidays require official confirmation. An estimate is not confirmation. Weekends: Saturday and Sunday; date ranges are limited to 366 days.

Understand the context

The common public-administration calendar uses Saturday and Sunday as weekends. Religious holidays may await official confirmation: null means unknown, not a guaranteed working day. Business calendars may differ.

Read the response

data: The requested results, as an object or an array.

meta: Dataset sources, license and dates. null means unknown or unavailable.

API v2 is the canonical path. Older /api/v1 paths remain compatibility aliases for the currently published behavior, including pagination; no removal date is scheduled.
