What the numbers say
In 2026, Zimbabwe has 13 nationwide public holidays and Mozambique has 9, so Zimbabwe gets 4 more days off. They line up on 3 dates, including New Year's Day, Worker's Day and Christmas Day.
What matters for time off is how many land on weekdays: Zimbabwe has 9 on working days (4 fall on a weekend), against 8 for Mozambique (1 on a weekend).
For short breaks, Zimbabwe offers 6 long weekends (a Monday or Friday holiday) and 3 possible bridge days (a Tuesday or Thursday holiday); Mozambique offers 4 and 4. Mozambique has more bridge-day opportunities. The busiest month is April in Zimbabwe and September in Mozambique.
