The Philippines runs two tracks. Track one is the fixed list under Administrative Codes and the Regular Holidays Act framework (Republic Act 9849 lineage plus subsequent proclamations): regular holidays with pay — New Year, Araw ng Kagitingan (9 April), Good Friday, Maundy Thursday, Labor Day, Independence Day (12 June), National Heroes Day (last Monday in August), Bonifacio Day (30 November), Christmas, Rizal Day (30 December) — plus special non-working days (Ninoy Aquino Day, All Saints, Immaculate Conception, Last Day of the Year) that carry a half-pay structure rather than full holiday pay, which is why employers care about which list a date belongs to.
Track two is the Chinese-lunar layer — Chinese New Year and Eid'l Fitr/Adha for the Muslim-majority Bangsamoro region — each fixed annually by presidential proclamation, published in December the year before, and frequently amended late. EDSA Anniversary (25 February) comes and goes from the list with successive administrations. The practical planning fact: Christmas season officially opens in September ("the longest Christmas holiday in the world" is policy, not just marketing — "ber-months"), and the two-week gap between 24 December and 1 January closes government and much of the private sector regardless of which specific dates are legally designated. Never trust a static holiday list for Manila past 24 December without checking the year's Proclamation.
Deducted days are national public holidays (the days the dataset records as applying to the whole country). Holidays observed only in part of the country, or only in particular sectors, are listed with “Regional or sector-specific only” and are not deducted from the business-day counts.
