The Cabinet of UAE has officially announced the UAE National Day and Commemoration Day holiday for 2022. The break will be from Thursday, December 1, to Saturday, December 3.
Since Sunday is a holiday in the UAE, work will resume on Monday, December 5. For those who have a Sunday off, this would work out to a four-day weekend.
The UAE officially declares the annual Commemoration Day on November 30 to celebrate the country's martyrs and recognise their giving and sacrifices. The day coincides with the date of the martyrdom of Salem Suhail bin Khamis, who died on November 30, 1971, while performing his national duty.
However, the holiday for Commemoration Day is clubbed together with the National Day celebrations from December 1 to 3.
