According to the ministry, during consultations on the holiday schedule, the Central Organizing Committee suggested adhering to Clause 1, Article 2 of Resolution No. 28/2026/QH16 on the development of Vietnamese culture.
Under this guidance, any arrangement of holiday schedules or working-day swaps (if necessary) should be evaluated based on practical conditions and socio-economic requirements before submission to the Prime Minister for decision.
Incorporating this feedback, the Ministry of Home Affairs re-examined options for Vietnam Culture Day 2026. Under the final proposal, civil servants and public employees would receive a single day off on Tuesday, November 24, without shifting the Monday, November 23, working day to Saturday, November 28.
Private-sector employees would also be entitled to a fully paid day off on Tuesday, November 24, in accordance with labor regulations.
