List of 2020 Public Holidays in UAE

List of 2020 Public Holidays in UAE: The government of the UAE has announced the list of public holidays for private and public sector employees for 2020. But, since some holidays are based on the moon’s appearance, the exact dates can change closer to the time.

So, maybe not booking any trips yet will be confirmed in the coming months as an official confirmation of each.

Previously announced holidays in 2019 and 2020, the UAE Cabinet would be the same for public and private sector employees, meaning UAE citizens could have up to 15 days of public holidays in 2020.
