Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly issued a decree declaring Thursday, July 2 to be a paid public holiday for employees in ministries, government departments, public authorities, local government units, as well as public sector and public business sector companies, on the occasion of the anniversary of the June 30 revolution.

Has June 30th holiday been moved to a later date?

According to the official decision, the holiday commemorating June 30 Revolution has been moved from its original date of Tuesday, June 30 to Thursday, July 2.

This comes as part of government policy to reschedule holidays that coincide with weekly working days to weekend days.

This measure aims to give employees the opportunity to enjoy a continuous three-day holiday—Thursday, Friday, and Saturday—without disrupting workflow in government agencies and various institutions.

Exam status

The Cabinet’s decision confirmed that exams will proceed according to the schedules and dates previously approved by the relevant authorities and will not be affected by the official holiday.

Categories benefiting from holiday

The announced official holiday includes employees of ministries, government departments, public authorities, local government units, public sector companies, and public business sector companies.

The holiday is granted with full pay in accordance with the applicable regulations.
