What the numbers say about Tunisia in 2027
The count uses Saturday and Sunday as the weekly rest days, the standard pattern in Tunisia. Only holidays that apply across the whole country are deducted. Someone working in a region with its own extra days will have a little more time off than these figures show.
3 holidays land on a rest day this year: Independence Day (20 Mar), Labour Day (1 May), Republic Day (25 Jul). On the calendar alone that means no extra time off. Some countries move the day off to the next working day; whether that applies here is set by national rules, so check before you plan around it.
March is the longest working month with 23 days, and October the shortest with 20. A gap of 3 days is enough to make a fixed monthly target noticeably harder in some months than in others. Across quarters, Q1 is the leanest at 63 working days (January, February, March).
2026 had 254working days, so 2027gives you 2 more working days.Plans copied over from last year without adjusting for that difference will be slightly off from January onwards.
Among the 204 countries we track for 2027, the median number of national holidays is 12. With 8, Tunisia sits below the middle of the range, around the 12th percentile (the lowest count this year is 3, the highest 49).
Holidays create 5 stretches of three or more days off in a row. The longest lasts 3 days, from 1 January to 3 January (New Year's Day). See every long weekend in 2027.
