1. Increase in Number of National Holidays
The number of national holidays has increased from 11 days to 16 days annually.

2. Newly Added National Holidays

·        Labor Day (previously observed only by certain sectors, now a nationwide holiday): May 1

• Teachers’ Day: September 28
• Taiwan Restoration and Battle of Guningtou Memorial Day (formerly Restoration Day): October 25
• Constitution Day: December 25
• Chinese New Year's Eve is now officially designated as a holiday

Please note:

s  Since September 28, 2025 (Teachers’ Day), falls on a Sunday, a compensatory day off will be observed on Monday, September 29.

s  October 25, 2025 (Restoration Day), falls on a Saturday, so the compensatory day off will be Friday, October 24.
