Collective Leave Days (Cuti Bersama) 2025-2027

A unique feature of the Indonesian calendar is cuti bersama, or collective leave days. These are extra days off, typically placed around major holidays to create long weekends and encourage domestic tourism. While not official public holidays, many offices and schools will be closed.

For example, in 2026, key cuti bersama dates include February 16th (for Chinese New Year) and March 23rd-24th (extending the Lebaran holiday schedule). Always confirm these with your employer, as they can be subject to change.

Indonesia Bank Holidays: Are Banks Closed?

Yes. Banks across Indonesia are closed on all national public holidays. If you have important banking to do, it’s best to plan around the published Indonesia bank holidays list. Some ATMs will remain in service, but in-branch services will be unavailable.

Key Religious & National Holidays Explained

Understanding the holidays adds context to the dates. Here’s a quick look at some of the most significant ones:

• Idul Fitri (Lebaran): The most important Islamic holiday, marking the end of Ramadan. It involves a mass exodus from cities to hometowns and several days of celebration. This is the heart of the Lebaran holiday schedule.

• Nyepi (Bali Hindu New Year): A day of complete silence in Bali. Everything closes, including the airport. The streets are empty as people observe a day of reflection.

• Waisak Day: Celebrates the birth, enlightenment, and death of Buddha, observed by the Buddhist community.

• Idul Adha: The Muslim “Festival of Sacrifice.”

• Independence Day: Celebrated on August 17th with flag ceremonies and festive games nationwide.

How Indonesian Holiday Dates Are Set

The official public holidays in the Kemenkopmk list for Indonesia are determined annually by a Joint Ministerial Decree (SKB Tiga Menteri). This decree involves several government ministries. The process considers astronomical calculations for Hindu and Buddhist holidays, lunar sightings for Islamic holidays, and the Gregorian calendar for fixed dates. This is why you’ll see a holiday estimate for future years until the official decree is published.

Planning Your Year: Long Weekends in Indonesia

Looking at the Indonesian bank holiday calendars, you can spot fantastic long weekend opportunities. For instance, in 2025, the Ascension Day holiday in Indonesia falls on a Thursday (May 29th), potentially creating a four-day break. In 2026, Idul Adha in Indonesia is on a Wednesday (May 27th), offering a midweek break. Use these calendars to plan your travel and activities well in advance!
