What the numbers say
In 2026, Czechia has 13 nationwide public holidays and Poland has 14, so Poland gets 1 more day off. They line up on 6 dates, including Den obnovy samostatného českého státu; Nový rok, Velikonoční pondělí, Svátek práce and Štědrý den.
What matters for time off is how many land on weekdays: Czechia has 11 on working days (2 fall on a weekend), against 8 for Poland (6 on a weekend).
For short breaks, Czechia offers 7 long weekends (a Monday or Friday holiday) and 3 possible bridge days (a Tuesday or Thursday holiday); Poland offers 3 and 4. Poland has more bridge-day opportunities. The busiest month is December in Czechia and May in Poland.
