- The fullest month is April with 22 working days; the lightest is January 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 8 nationwide holidays falling on weekdays come from the same dataset as the Sweden public holidays 2027 page, which lists each one with the weekday it lands on — and how Sweden's holiday system works:
- Sweden has no substitution rule — a holiday falling at a weekend is simply lost that year.
- Midsummer Eve, Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve are not statutory holidays, yet virtually the whole country treats them as full days off; Midsummer Eve in particular is the year’s biggest celebration.
- The klämdag — a working day squeezed between a holiday and a weekend — is Sweden’s institutional bridge day, and the long-weekend table below shows where they arise.
