Iceland has 250 working days in 2027: the year's 261 weekdays, minus the 11 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 22 working days; the lightest is May 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 11 nationwide holidays falling on weekdays come from the same dataset as the Iceland public holidays 2027 page, which lists each one with the weekday it lands on — and how Iceland's holiday system works:
- Iceland keeps holidays nobody else has: the First Day of Summer, a Thursday in late April from the Old Icelandic calendar, and Commerce Day on the first Monday of August.
- The Christian calendar contributes Maundy Thursday through Whit Monday, so spring is dense with days off.
- There is no general substitution for weekend holidays.
