UAE announces Eid Al Fitr public holiday for private sector
Long weekend, loading… The UAE's Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MOHRE) has announced the dates for the Eid Al Fitr holiday for 2025. Applying to all private sector employees, the paid public holiday for Eid Al Fitr 2025 will be from Sunday 30 March to Tuesday 1 April. That means it will be a four-day weekend for those typically off Saturday and Sunday. However, it could still be a five-day weekend. In a post on X, MOHRE added that if Ramadan is 30 days, Wednesday April 2 will also be a public holiday. But we'll need to wait until the sighting of the moon on Saturday March 29 for confirmation. If the crescent moon is sighted, Eid will begin on Sunday. If it isn't, Ramadan will continue on Sunday, with Monday March 31 then marking the first day of Eid. We announce that from Sunday 30 March to Tuesday 1 April, will be a paid holiday for all private sector employees across the country on the occasion of Eid Al Fitr. If the month of Ramadan concludes in the 30th day, the holiday will be extended to Wednesday, 2 April 2025.
