Questions

How many public holidays does Singapore have in 2027?

11. Together they make 5 long weekends of three days or more without taking leave: New Year's Day (Fri 1 – Sun 3 Jan), Chinese New Year (Sat 6 – Mon 8 Feb), Good Friday (Fri 26 – Sun 28 Mar), Hari Raya Haji (Sat 15 – Mon 17 May) and National Day (Sat 7 – Mon 9 Aug).

Which 2027 public holidays fall on a weekend?

Chinese New Year (Sat 6 Feb), Labour Day (Sat 1 May) and Christmas Day (Sat 25 Dec) fall on a Saturday. Chinese New Year (Day 2, Sun 7 Feb) falls on a Sunday, so the next day is the holiday: Mon 8 Feb.

What happens when a public holiday falls on a Saturday?

There's no Monday in lieu. If you're covered by the Employment Act and Saturday isn't one of your working days, your employer must give you another day off or an extra day's pay. Many companies give the day off, so check your HR policy before planning around it.

What happens when a public holiday falls on a Sunday?

If Sunday is your rest day, the next working day is a paid public holiday. For most people that's the Monday, which is why Sunday holidays make a three-day weekend.

Which 2027 holiday gives the most days off for the least leave?

Deepavali: 1 day of leave (Fri 29 Oct) for 4 days off, Thu 28 – Sun 31 Oct. The longest break for the least leave is Hari Raya Haji & Vesak Day: 3 days of leave (Tue 18 May, Wed 19 May, Fri 21 May) for 9 days off, Sat 15 – Sun 23 May.
