About National Holidays in China

Official public holidays in China. These are designated non-working days when most businesses, schools, government offices, and financial institutions are closed. Understanding these holidays is essential for planning business operations, travel itineraries, and personal time off.

Holiday planning tips: Consider booking accommodations and transportation well in advance for major holidays. Many locals take extended vacations during key holiday periods, which can affect availability of services and create opportunities for longer breaks by strategically using your vacation days.

Dates may vary based on local observations, official announcements, and regional customs
