Muslim Holidays: Muslim bank holidays, legal holidays and public holidays for Libya were evaluated using the Umm al-Qura Calendar of Saudi Arabia which is used in Saudi Arabia and in most of the Persian Gulf States. Holidays may occur a day later in countries outside the Gulf region. The sunrises, sunsets, moon phases, moonrises and moonsets used in these calculations are based on the location of Mecca (latitude 21.42°N, longitude, 39.82°E, GMT+3 hours, no summer time rules). |
| (c) |
Duplicated Holidays: Holiday occurs more than once in 2007. |
| (e) |
Saturdays : The fact that the date displayed above is a Saturday means that there is no official rule concerning bank holidays, legal holidays and public holidays that occur on a Saturday in Libya. Individuals and/or businesses may still choose to take this holiday on the previous Friday or the following Monday, regardless of the official national policy, or lack thereof. Note that in many Asian countries, Saturday is, officially, a normal working day. However, many businesses are only open on Saturday morning, and in some cases not at all. |
| (f) |
Sundays : The fact that the date displayed above is a Sunday means that there is no official rule concerning bank holidays, legal holidays and public holidays that occur on a Sunday in Libya. Individuals and/or businesses may still choose to take this holiday on the following Monday, regardless of the official national policy, or lack thereof. |
| (h) |
Fridays (Muslim) : Muslim holidays that occur on a Friday may, in Libya, be observed on the following Saturday, either officially, or by some individuals and/or businesses independently of any official national policy regarding bank holidays, legal holidays and public holidays. |
