Christmas, New Year holidays announced in Jordan

Sunday, Prime Minister Bisher al-Khasawneh declared Dec. 25, 2021 and Jan. 1, 2022 official holidays for all ministries and governmental institutions.

This also included that Sunday, Dec. 26, 2021, will be an official holiday for Christian employees and students.

However, this excluded ministries, departments and official institutions whose nature of work requires otherwise.
