China note: this list gives the statutory holiday dates only. Rescheduled weekend workdays (调休补班, the swapped Saturdays and Sundays worked around long breaks) are not included, so a plain weekday count will differ from the official work calendar around Spring Festival and National Day.
Planning notes for 2027
Saturday and Sunday are the standard weekend in China, but official holiday schedules often move a weekend day into the working week to build longer breaks. Where a holiday sits next to a weekend, expect offices and banks to run short staff on the days in between.
