Mexico Confirms Sept. 16 as Mandatory Holiday With Triple Pay for Those Who Work

Banks and basic education schools will close that Tuesday, with Sept. 15 off left to each institution.

Overview

  • Mexico’s labor law sets Sept. 16 as a non‑transferable rest day in 2025, so the holiday will not be moved despite falling on a Tuesday.
  • Under Article 75 of the LFT, employees required to work that day must receive their normal rest‑day pay plus double for the service rendered, totaling the equivalent of triple pay.
  • The CNBV’s calendar designates Sept. 16 as a banking holiday, so branches will be closed, with remaining 2025 bank closures on Nov. 17, Dec. 12 and Dec. 25.
  • The SEP lists Sept. 16 as a day off in the basic education calendar, giving students a school holiday.
  • Granting Sept. 15 as an extra day off is discretionary for schools and employers, and Profedet provides the official holiday list and free guidance or complaint channels for pay disputes.
