2025 Public Holidays & Working Days in Brazil
Complete 2025 public holidays, weekend rules, working day count, and monthly calendar for Brazil.
Brazil has 251 working days and 15 public holidays in 2025, with a Saturday – Sunday weekend. Including 2 bank holidays. Banks and logistics typically suspend during public holidays.
Brazil operates on UTC-3 with standard business hours 08:00–17:00 and a saturday – sunday weekend. In 2025, there are 251 standard working days and 15 public holidays, including 2 bank holidays, with no makeup workdays scheduled. For cross-border trade and logistics professionals, note that banks suspend clearing, customs clearance pauses, and port operations halt during public holidays — potentially delaying payment settlement by 1–3 business days and increasing container detention fees. When scheduling shipments, letter-of-credit presentations, or international meetings, avoid Brazil's non-working days and confirm operating windows around 2025 holidays with local agents in advance.
⚠️ Cross-Border Logistics & Meetings Note
Banks and logistics typically suspend during public holidays; arrange cross-border business 1–2 weeks in advance. Islamic calendar holidays (e.g., Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha) are subject to official government announcements.
