How Many Business Days in a Year
This calculator counts US federal business days — Monday to Friday, excluding the eleven federal holidays of 5 U.S.C. §6103 on the days they are observed — in any year or month from 1986 to 2100. For example, it can help you find out how many business days are in January 2026? (The answer is: 20 business days). Choose a month, or “Year” for the whole year, enter the year (e.g. 2026) and press “Find out”. Business day and working day mean the same here. Bank holidays and state holidays differ from the federal calendar, and the pages say where.
