General holidays and holidays by executive order, including the extra days around Eid, from the government holiday list (2027 gazette of 5 November 2026). Islamic and Hindu dates for years without a list yet are estimated, and Islamic ones depend on the moon sighting. Chaitra Sankranti is a holiday only in the Rangamati, Khagrachari and Bandarban hill districts.

Dates marked tentative follow the moon: Islamic holidays use the Umm al-Qura calendar and depend on the moon sighting, and festival dates for years without an official list are estimated. The official date can differ by a day.
