Holiday Calendars Finalized for Late November in Argentina, Peru and Mexico

Officials clarify who rests and how pay applies to end confusion over regional versus national dates.

Overview

  • Argentina confirms a four‑day stretch from Friday 21 to Monday 24 November: Friday 21 is an optional tourism non‑working day and Monday 24 is the transferred National Sovereignty Day holiday.
  • Under Argentina’s labor law, work on Monday’s national holiday must be paid at double rate, while Friday’s optional day is at the employer’s discretion and, if worked, is paid as a normal day; the framework stems from Decrees 1027/2024 and 614/2025.
  • Peru’s El Peruano clarifies there are no new nationwide November holidays; Tuesday 25 November applies only to Moquegua by decree and Pasco marks a local date on Thursday 27, with classes proceeding normally elsewhere per Minedu.
  • Peru’s next nationwide long break is in December, with Monday 8 (Immaculate Conception) and Tuesday 9 (Battle of Ayacucho) creating a Saturday‑to‑Tuesday stretch from 6 to 9 December.
  • Mexico will observe Revolution Day on Monday 17 November as a mandatory rest; employees who work that day are entitled to triple pay in total under the Federal Labor Law, and banks will close according to the sector calendar.
