Count Peru Working Days

Counts authority-scope working and non-working dates in a range. Required calendar_scope and workweek distinguish national holidays from compensable public-sector days and five/six-day rosters.

When to use

You need an auditable Peru working-day count.

Do not use when: Choose calendar_scope and workweek explicitly. National holidays and public-sector compensable days have different applicability. This is a declared five-day (Saturday-Sunday rest) or six-day (Sunday rest) planning calendar, not proof of an individual's roster. Essential services, private-employer adoption, compensating shifts, regional holidays, banking, school, tax and procedural deadline calendars require separate evidence. The two compensable public-sector days remain working days for tax purposes. Later decrees require a new snapshot; dates beyond 2026 are unsupported.

Example user requests

Peru: National July week.
Peru: Public-sector July week.

Formula

working day = outside selected weekly rest and selected holiday layer

Apply the explicitly selected weekly-rest model and the pinned national or public-sector date layer. Do not infer compensating shifts or tax deadlines.

FAQ

Is 27 July a national holiday?

It is a compensable public-sector day under DS 075-2026-PCM. The national_statutory layer keeps it working when the selected weekly baseline permits.

Does this calculate tax deadlines?

No. The decrees keep the compensable days working for tax purposes. Use a separately verified tax calendar.
