What this value means

INAMOVIBLES (fixed dates): Año Nuevo (01/01), Carnaval (16–17/02), Memoria (24/03), Malvinas (02/04), Viernes Santo (03/04), Día del Trabajador (01/05), Revolución de Mayo (25/05), Belgrano (20/06), Independencia (09/07), Inmaculada Concepción (08/12), Navidad (25/12). TRASLADABLES (movable under Ley 27.399, shown at 2026 observed dates): Güemes — originally 17/06 (Wed) → observed Mon 15/06; San Martín — third Monday of August → 17/08; Diversidad Cultural — 12/10 (already a Monday in 2026); Soberanía Nacional — originally 20/11 (Fri) → observed Mon 23/11. NOT included in the value array (legally distinct — work is optional and paid at the normal rate, no double pay): three 'días no laborables con fines turísticos' set by Resolución 164/2025 (Jefatura de Gabinete) for 2026 — Mon 23/03, Fri 10/07 and Mon 07/12. Viernes Santo is a religious feriado; other movable religious observances (e.g. Jewish and Islamic holidays) are non-working days only for adherents and are not listed here. 2027 EXTENSION (2026-07-30): the Ley 27.399 calendar - 12 feriados inamovibles and 4 trasladables. The art. 6 transfer rule moves a trasladable falling on Tuesday or Wednesday BACK to the preceding Monday and one falling on Thursday or Friday FORWARD to the following Monday; Saturday, Sunday and Monday occurrences are not moved. Hence Guemes (17 June, a Thursday) is observed Monday 21 June, San Martin (17 August, a Tuesday) Monday 16 August, and Cultural Diversity (12 October, a Tuesday) Monday 11 October - but National Sovereignty Day falls on SATURDAY 20 November 2027 and is therefore NOT moved, unlike 2026 when it shifted to 23 November. Carnival is Easter-relative but inamovible in Argentine law: 8 and 9 February 2027. NOT INCLUDED, because they do not yet exist: the up-to-three 'puentes turisticos' that the Executive may fix under art. 7 (restricted to Mondays or Fridays, due to be published roughly 50 days before the end of the preceding year - the 2026 ones came in Resolucion 164/2025 of 26 December 2025), and the 24/31 December non-working days that the national public administration is granted by separate annual decree. Neither had been decreed for 2027 as at 30 July 2026; expect them around November-December 2026. Maundy Thursday is a dia no laborable rather than a feriado and, as in 2026, is not served here.
