If a fixed statutory holiday lands on a weekend in Wa‘lan, the following Monday is commonly declared an official substitute non-working day by government notification.
Wa‘lan runs on the Asia/Aden time zone, so statutory holidays here fall on the same local calendar date as the rest of Yemen — there's no cross-timezone shift to account for.
