Overview
- Decree 614/2025, published in the Boletín Oficial on August 28, enables trasladable national holidays that fall on Saturday or Sunday to move to the prior Friday or the following Monday.
- The Jefatura de Gabinete is designated as the authority of application to decide each case and issue complementary rules, so relocations are not automatic.
- Fixed inamovible holidays are unaffected and will continue to be observed on their original dates.
- The next potential case is Sunday, October 12, 2025 (Día del Respeto a la Diversidad Cultural), whose possible relocation awaits a formal decision.
- The government cites tourism and calendar clarity as reasons for the change, while separate municipal asuetos in late August and early September remain limited to their jurisdictions.
