festivos.io

Find the next or previous working day

Get the first Monday–Friday that is not a published public holiday, strictly after or before the date you choose. Useful when a date falls on a weekend or a Spanish holiday and you need the nearest working day.

Not a legal-deadline calculator. For a binding administrative, court, tax or employment deadline, verify the applicable rule and official gazette.

Find the next or previous working day

    Choose a municipality from the list so regional and available local holidays can be applied.

    Rules

    How it works

    Choose the municipality so regional and published local holidays are part of the walk.

    Enter the reference date and pick next or previous. The selected date is never returned — even if it is already a working day.

    The calculator steps one calendar day at a time until it finds a working day inside the published coverage window.

    Results link to the municipality calendar so you can see which holiday, if any, caused a skip.

    Use cases

    When to use this tool

    • Snap a weekend or holiday date to the next Spanish working day for scheduling, payroll cut-offs or messaging.
    • Find the previous working day before a national holiday bridge without memorising regional calendars.
    • Build a quick “effective date” when a form was submitted on a non-working day — then confirm any legal fiction of notification separately.

    Method

    Working-day definition on festivos.io

    Here a working day is Monday–Friday that is not a published national, regional or local public holiday for the chosen Spanish municipality. Saturdays and Sundays are always excluded. Half-days, company calendars, collective agreements and court or tax rules can define a different day — this page does not apply those special regimes.

    Questions

    FAQ for this mode

    If my date is already a working day, what happens?

    You still get the next or previous one. This mode never returns the same date.

    Does it skip local holidays?

    Yes, when those dates are published for the municipality on festivos.io.

    What about Easter or movable feasts?

    Movable national and regional holidays are included when they appear in the published calendar for that year and territory.

    Is Saturday ever a working day here?

    No. Saturdays and Sundays are always excluded in this tool.

    Is the answer official?

    No. festivos.io keeps source references, but it does not replace the BOE, a regional gazette or professional advice.
