The 2026 table for País Vasco lists 14 dates: 10 fall on a weekday and 4 on a weekend. That leaves 251 working days in 2026. Like the Spain calculator, this page counts Monday to Friday as working days; what changes is the holiday list.
How País Vasco differs from the Spain calculator
The País Vasco observes San José on 19 March, Jueves Santo (Maundy Thursday) on 2 April, and Santiago Apóstol on 25 July, which the BOE table marks as Fiestas Nacionales, and adds Lunes de Pascua (Easter Monday) on 6 April. Santiago falls on a Saturday in 2026, so the holidays on days from Monday to Friday that this site's Spain calculator set does not contain are San José, Jueves Santo, and Lunes de Pascua. Todos los Santos (1 November) and the Día de la Constitución (6 December) fall on a Sunday in 2026, and the BOE table gives the País Vasco no Monday holiday after either. Under art. 46 of Real Decreto 2001/1983, which the BOE resolution recites, up to two more days a year are local fiestas in each municipality, published in the bulletin of the Comunidad Autónoma or of the province; they are not in this count.
