Working days in Germany, 2030
Germany has 252 working days in 2030: the year's 261 weekdays, minus the 9 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 July with 23 working days; the lightest is June with 19.
- 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 9 nationwide holidays falling on weekdays come from the same dataset as the Germany public holidays 2030 page, which lists each one with the weekday it lands on — and how Germany's holiday system works:
- Only one holiday is federal in Germany: the Day of German Unity on 3 October. Everything else is decided by the sixteen Länder — Bavaria keeps the most, Berlin added International Women’s Day — which is why so many rows below are marked regional.
- There is no substitution rule: a holiday that falls on a weekend is simply lost that year, which makes German long-weekend planning very sensitive to the calendar.
- Watch for Brückentage — bridge days: a Thursday holiday plus a Friday of leave is the standard German long-weekend move, and the table below shows exactly where those are.
