Kenya
There are 10 registered holidays for the Kenya provider in 2026.
Incomplete implementation
Not all holidays are implemented for the Kenya provider. Islamic lunar calendar holidays (e.g. Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha) are not yet calculated by Yasumi and are therefore not listed.
The below listed holidays (and the aforementioned number of holidays) merely reflect which holidays are registered with the Kenya 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.
