Vietnam Public Holidays

Vietnam's public holidays are set by the Labour Code and mix state anniversaries with the traditional lunar festivals. The lunar holidays, above all Tet, change date each year because they follow the lunisolar calendar.

How public holidays work in Vietnam

When a public holiday falls on a weekend, employees are normally given a substitute day off on the following working day. Public holidays are the days most workplaces and schools in Vietnam treat as days off, so they shape when people travel, book time away and plan around childcare. Religious holidays and wider observances sit alongside them. They are not always days off, but they are dates many households still mark. Each year page lists the public and religious holidays in full, and OneHaus keeps the complete set current in your shared home calendar.
