Jura Business Day Calculator
Last reviewed: October 14, 2026 · Holiday data: October 8, 2026
Calculate business days in Jura with its own cantonal public holidays. Like the Switzerland calculator, this page counts Monday to Friday as working days; what changes is the holiday list, so due dates and deadlines can land differently from the Switzerland calculator's count.
How Jura differs from the Switzerland calculator
The canton's page links its law on official holidays (RSJU 555.1) and its list of official holidays for 2026 and 2027, which names Nouvel-An, the Lendemain du Nouvel-An (2 January), Vendredi-Saint, Lundi de Pâques, the Fête du travail (1 May), Ascension, Lundi de Pentecôte, Fête-Dieu, the Commémoration du Plébiscite (23 June), the Fête Nationale, Assomption (15 August), Toussaint (1 November) and Noël. The 2026 and 2027 dates on this page follow it, and the 2028 dates apply the same days: against this site's eight-day Swiss baseline they add 2 January, 1 May, Fête-Dieu (4 June 2026, 27 May 2027, 15 June 2028), 23 June, Assomption and Toussaint, and drop Saint-Étienne (26 December), which is not on the list. 8 December is not on the list either, and the list says the Lundi de Saint-Martin is not a holiday.
Worked example
Adding 1 business day to Wednesday, December 31, 2025 using Jura's holidays lands on Monday, January 5, 2026. With the Switzerland calculator's holidays, the same calculation lands on Friday, January 2, 2026: the gap comes from Jura's own calendar.
