Planning commercial schedules or travel in Al Qurnah, Basra, Iraq? Track upcoming statutory holidays and local bank closures across Al Qurnah.
Corporate teams, logistics hubs, and financial offices in Al Qurnah align operating hours with statutory government gazette notifications. Fixed statutory national holidays (such as National Day of Iraq on October 3) mandate official non-working status for banks and government offices in Al Qurnah.
This is Iraq's national public holiday calendar — the same live calendar shown on Iraq's country-level and Basra holiday pages — embedded here because public holidays are set nationally and apply the same way in Al Qurnah as anywhere else in Iraq.

These are Iraq's official statutory fixed-date public holidays — the same national list shown on Iraq's country and Basra holiday pages — mandated by national labor law and applicable to financial institutions, schools, and government administration in Al Qurnah just as everywhere else in Iraq.
| Holiday Name | Fixed Date | Category | Closure Status | Official Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| National Day of Iraq | October 3 | National Public Holiday | Full Federal Closure (Banks & Govt Administration) | cabinet.iq |
| Republic Day | July 14 | National Holiday | Full Federal Closure | cabinet.iq |
Businesses in Al Qurnah generally follow the same statutory closure pattern as the rest of Iraq: banks and government offices close fully, while retail and hospitality tend to trim hours rather than close for the day.
A statutory holiday falling on a Saturday or Sunday in Al Qurnah doesn't simply get skipped — Iraq's gazette process typically moves the observed day off to the following Monday.
With a population of 134,174 and running on the Asia/Baghdad time zone, Al Qurnah follows Iraq's statutory holiday dates on local calendar days — no cross-timezone adjustment needed for a purely domestic holiday list.
