What the numbers say
In 2026, Romania has 17 nationwide public holidays and Hungary has 13, so Romania gets 4 more days off. They line up on 4 dates, including Anul Nou, Ziua Muncii and Crăciunul.
What matters for time off is how many land on weekdays: Romania has 12 on working days (5 fall on a weekend), against 8 for Hungary (5 on a weekend).
For short breaks, Romania offers 8 long weekends (a Monday or Friday holiday) and 3 possible bridge days (a Tuesday or Thursday holiday); Hungary offers 6 and 2. Romania has more bridge-day opportunities. The busiest month is January in Romania and April in Hungary.
