Brazil has 249 working days in 2029: the year's 261 weekdays, minus the 12 nationwide public holidays that land on one. The month-by-month table below is computed from the same holiday data the calendar maker prints.

- The fullest month is August with 23 working days; the lightest is February with 18.
- Counts use nationwide holidays only — regional ones (a state day in the US, a cantonal day in Switzerland) reduce the total further where they apply.
- Weekends are Saturday and Sunday. Half-day customs — a Christmas Eve afternoon, a Bayram eve — are not subtracted.
Which holidays are subtracted
The 12 nationwide holidays falling on weekdays come from the same dataset as the Brazil public holidays 2029 page, which lists each one with the weekday it lands on — and how Brazil's holiday system works:
- Brazil layers national, state and municipal holidays; the local ones (São Paulo’s anniversary, Rio’s São Jorge) are marked regional below.
- Carnival is not a national statutory holiday — it is a ponto facultativo, an optional day declared each year, though much of the country treats it as sacred anyway.
- There is no substitution for weekend holidays, but decrees regularly bridge Thursday and Tuesday holidays for the public sector.
