In practice they close banks, the B3 stock exchange, federal offices, and most private-sector employers nationwide. This calculator treats them as observed holidays. Ash Wednesday morning is a partial bank closure traditionally, with banks opening at noon, but the calculator does not model partial-day closures.
When did Dia da Consciência Negra become a federal holiday?
Lei nº 14.759/2023 made Dia da Consciência Negra (November 20, commemorating the death of Zumbi dos Palmares) a federal public holiday starting in 2024. Before 2024 it was a state or municipal holiday in some jurisdictions (notably Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and parts of the Northeast). Banks, federal offices, and many private employers nationwide now close on November 20.
Why does the business-day count vary year to year?
Two things shift the monthly count for Brazil. First, the day of the week the first of the month lands on changes the count of each weekday. Second, Brazilian federal holidays anchored to a fixed date shift their weekday across years. Some years a fixed-date holiday lands on a weekend; some countries shift the observance to an adjacent weekday and some absorb it into the weekend. August 2024 had 22 dias úteis, so August 2025 has 1 fewer working day year over year.
