France

There are 11 registered holidays for the France provider in 2026.

The below listed holidays (and the aforementioned number of holidays) merely reflect which holidays are registered with the France provider in Yasumi. These do not indicate whether a particular holiday is considered a non-working day or not.

Although Yasumi has the ability to classify holidays (e.g. 'Official', 'Regional', etc.), this isn't optimal feature and consider changing this in a future release.
