    Frequently asked questions

    How many working days are in Norway in 2026?

    There are 251 working days in Norway in 2026. That's calculated from 365 calendar days minus 104 weekend days and 10 public holidays that fall on a weekday. The remaining 4 public holidays land on weekends and don't reduce the working-day count.

    How many working hours are in Norway in 2026?

    Norway has 2008 working hours in 2026, based on the 40-hour statutory work week (8 hours per day × 251 working days). Source: Norwegian Working Environment Act.

    Which public holidays in Norway fall in 2026?

    14 public holidays fall in 2026: Første nyttårsdag (2026-01-01); Skjærtorsdag (2026-04-02); Langfredag (2026-04-03); Første påskedag (2026-04-05); Andre påskedag (2026-04-06); Arbeidernes dag (2026-05-01) and 8 more.

    Does this count include half-days or regional holidays?

    No — only nationwide public and bank holidays defined by Norwegian Working Environment Act are subtracted. Regional, observance, and optional holidays vary by state or canton and aren't included so the headline figure stays consistent for nationwide payroll, billing, and capacity-planning use.
