Overview
- The Thursday 8 October 2026 Combate de Angamos is a confirmed national feriado under Decreto Legislativo N.° 713 and applies to public and private workers.
- The Friday 9 October 2026 is not a holiday and remains a normal workday according to the official calendar published in El Peruano.
- The Ministry of Labor has proposed using días no laborables compensables—non‑working days whose hours must be recovered later—instead of declaring new national feriados for the papal visit.
- Officials have discussed candidate non‑working dates for Lima, including 11 November, 12 November and 16 November, but the Executive has not issued a final decree and any dates remain proposals.
- Peruvian law treats feriados and días no laborables differently so workers who must work on 8 October without a substitute rest are entitled to extra pay equal to three times their daily wage and employers risk Sunafil sanctions for noncompliance.
