Dear All,

I am planning my holidays. I know for a fact that 18 Dec is National Day but as it is coming on Friday hence when we will get this holday? Thursday (17 Dec) or Sunday (20th Dec) or none at all?

Also another question on the EID holdays are likely to be for 3 days or 4 days for Banking Staff as EID is likely to be Friday the 27th Nov (70 days from previous EID).

Thanks for your help and time. cheers

National day coming during weekends: will be considered only at the weekend..

Eid holidays: if starting friday.. then it is Qatar Central Bank who will deside how many days for banks to close..and mostly it will be Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday only.. i believe even if it comes on sat. the same holidays will be given..
