Public holidays excluded from the 2031 working-day count
These are the 32 public holidays in Latvia that land on a weekday in 2031 and therefore remove a working day. Holidays that fall on a weekend are not listed here because they do not change the working-day total.

How working days in Latvia are counted in 2031
The 230 working days shown above are the 365 calendar days of 2031, minus the 104 Saturdays and Sundays, minus the 32 public holidays that land on a weekday. Holidays that fall on a Saturday or Sunday are not subtracted, because they do not remove a day anyone would have worked; in 2031 that applies to 17 of Latvia's public holidays. At a standard eight-hour day, 230 working days works out to roughly 1,840 working hours across the year, before any annual leave is taken.
A working day in Latvia is generally any day from Monday to Friday that is not a public holiday. The count above uses that standard business-week definition, which is the basis most payroll systems, court filing rules, and commercial contracts use when they specify a number of business days. If your organisation treats Saturday as a partial working day, or observes regional holidays beyond the national list, the real total for your situation will differ slightly from the national figure shown here.
The working-day total is not evenly distributed across the year. Some months carry several public holidays while others have none, so the month-by-month table above is the figure to use for payroll, billing, and project planning rather than a flat assumption of about 19.2 working days per month. A holiday that lands on a Friday or Monday also creates a long weekend, which changes travel and delivery patterns for the days on either side even though it only removes one working day from the count.
When a public holiday in Latvia falls on a weekend, many jurisdictions grant a substitute day off on the nearest weekday. Where the source data records that substitution, the observed weekday is what reduces the working-day total; the original weekend date does not. For legally binding deadlines counted in business days, always confirm the observed holiday dates against the official calendar, because regional variations and one-off proclamations can shift the count.
To see the individual dates, the day of the week each holiday lands on, and the full official list, open the Latvia holiday calendar for 2031. You can subscribe to those dates as an .ics feed so they appear in your own calendar, or use the working-days-between-two-dates calculator to count business days for a specific date range rather than the whole year.
Working-day figures are computed from the public holiday list for Latvia (source: Nager.Date and the national references above) combined with a Monday-to-Friday business week. Regional holidays and substitute-day rules vary; confirm against the official calendar for legal or payroll use.
