What the numbers say

In 2026, Saudi Arabia has 14 nationwide public holidays and Yemen has 5, so Saudi Arabia gets 9 more days off. They share no holiday dates at all this year — worth knowing if you work with teams in both.

What matters for time off is how many land on weekdays: Saudi Arabia has 10 on working days (4 fall on a weekend), against 4 for Yemen (1 on a weekend).

For short breaks, Saudi Arabia offers 3 long weekends (a Monday or Friday holiday) and 4 possible bridge days (a Tuesday or Thursday holiday); Yemen offers 2 and 1. Saudi Arabia has more bridge-day opportunities. The busiest month is March in Saudi Arabia and February in Yemen.
