Pakistan Calendar

Pakistan runs on a single time zone — Pakistan Standard Time (UTC+5) — with no daylight saving. Official business follows the Gregorian calendar, while most religious holidays follow the Islamic Hijri calendar, which is why Eid and other Islamic observances shift about ten days earlier each year and are confirmed only once the moon is sighted.

Pakistan observes a mix of fixed national days (Kashmir Solidarity Day, Pakistan Day, Labour Day, Youm-e-Takbeer, Independence Day, Iqbal Day, Quaid-e-Azam Day) and Islamic holidays. Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha, Ashura and Eid Milad-un-Nabi depend on official moon sighting and aren't confirmed this far in advance, so we omit them here — see our Data Sources page.
