Under the State Council's 2026 holiday notice, issued on 4 November 2025, the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday runs from Friday 25 September to Sunday 27 September. There is no make-up working day for this break.

The National Day holiday, known as Golden Week, runs from Thursday 1 October to Wednesday 7 October. To balance the extra days off, Sunday 20 September and Saturday 10 October are official working days.

Only three normal working days, 28 to 30 September, fall between the two breaks.
