#CostaRica 🇨🇷 #BDS_Artículo: Costa Rica’s Opportunity to Lead on AI in the Workplace
Costa Rica has a historic opportunity to become a regional benchmark for the ethical and modern...
In Costa Rica, public holidays commemorate significant historical, religious, or cultural events and are legally established as non-working days (except as provided in Articles 150 and 151 of the Labor Code), so that workers may observe them or participate in the celebrations associated with each date.
To help you plan accordingly, below is the list of public holidays that will take place in Costa Rica during 2026, along with their type of payment, as established in Article 148 of the Labor Code.
Currently, no legal provision requires the transfer of holidays; therefore, each holiday must be observed on the day of the week it falls, even if it is a Saturday or Sunday.
Should regulations change affecting the transfer of holidays, we will update our calendar and inform you in advance.
For further guidance on this or other labor-related topics, we recommend using our BDS TOOLS self-management platform, where you can find the full calendar, practical resources, and specialized legal guidelines, among other materials.
