Indonesian society has celebrated Eid al-Fitr 2026. So, until when does the Eid holiday period last? The government has established the official Eid holiday schedule for 2026 through the Joint Decree of Three Ministers, including collective leave and national holidays. Additionally, there are flexible work policies such as Work From Anywhere (WFA) for civil servants (ASN) and the private sector, making the holiday period feel longer and more flexible. Let’s check until when the 2026 Eid holiday lasts. Eid Holiday Until 24 March 2026 Based on these provisions, the 2026 Eid holiday runs until Tuesday, 24 March 2026. There are a total of five holiday days, consisting of two national holidays and three collective leave days. The details are as follows: collective leave begins on Friday, 20 March 2026, followed by the national holiday of Eid al-Fitr on Saturday and Sunday, 21-22 March 2026. Then, collective leave continues on Monday and Tuesday, 23-24 March 2026. Thus, Tuesday, 24 March 2026, is the last day of the Eid holiday. General work activities will resume normally on Wednesday, 25 March 2026, although some agencies may still implement flexible work systems. Eid Holiday Schedule and March 2026 Holidays The provisions regarding national holidays and collective leave are outlined in the Joint Decision or SKB of Three Ministers. This regulation serves as the official guideline for determining holidays for ASN, private employees, and educational institutions. This year’s Eid holiday is adjacent to the celebration of the Holy Day of Nyepi, the 1948 Saka New Year. This makes the total number of holidays in March longer than usual. Here is the complete schedule: - Wednesday, 18 March 2026: collective leave for the Holy Day of Nyepi - Thursday, 19 March 2026: national holiday Nyepi - Friday, 20 March 2026: collective leave for Eid al-Fitr - Saturday, 21 March 2026: national holiday Eid al-Fitr - Sunday, 22 March 2026: national holiday Eid al-Fitr - Monday, 23 March 2026: collective leave for Eid al-Fitr - Tuesday, 24 March 2026: collective leave for Eid al-Fitr The total special Eid al-Fitr holidays amount to five days, consisting of two national holidays and three collective leave days. However, due to proximity to Nyepi, the public enjoys a long holiday of seven consecutive days, from 18 to 24 March 2026. WFA Schedule for ASN and Private Sector After Eid 2026 In addition to setting holiday days, the government has also arranged a flexible work scheme WFA. One of them is to break the density of return traffic from Eid homecoming 2026 because some workers can resume activities from their hometowns, while also encouraging economic activities among residents. Eid 2026 ASN WFA Schedule In addition to setting holidays, the government has also implemented a WFA scheme to help alleviate return traffic density while encouraging economic activities in the regions. For ASN, this policy is regulated through a Circular from the Minister of PANRB, which provides flexibility in arranging work locations and times. WFA is applied before and after the long holiday, namely on: - Monday, 16 March 2026: ASN WFA - Tuesday, 17 March 2026: ASN WFA - Wednesday, 25 March 2026: ASN WFA - Thursday, 26 March 2026: ASN WFA - Friday, 27 March 2026: ASN WFA Nevertheless, the implementation of WFA must still consider the smooth running of public services. Each agency has the authority to regulate the number of employees working from the office or other locations to ensure services run optimally. Private Sector Eid 2026 WFA Schedule For the private sector, the government through the Ministry of Manpower provides recommendations for companies to also implement flexible work systems during the Eid period. The WFA schedule for private workers essentially follows the same pattern as ASN, namely: - Monday, 16 March 2026: WFA before Nyepi holiday - Tuesday, 17 March 2026: WFA before Nyepi holiday - Wednesday, 25 March 2026: WFA after Eid al-Fitr holiday - Thursday, 26 March 2026: WFA after Eid al-Fitr holiday - Friday, 27 March 2026: WFA after Eid al-Fitr holiday However, it should be understood that the implementation of WFA in private companies is advisory. This policy is adjusted to the operational needs of each company. Certain sectors such as health, transportation, logistics, security, manufacturing, and the food and beverage industry must still operate normally because they relate to public services and production. Thus, this overview of the last day of the 2026 Eid holiday based on the SKB of Three Ministers, complete with the WFA schedule for ASN and the private sector.
