The academic calendar for the third semester of 1444 AH states that the Eid Al-Fitr holiday for students will start after the working day on Thursday, April 13th, which falls on Ramadan 22.

The first day of Eid al-Fitr is expected to be Friday, April 21; however, the exact date will be determined by the moon sighting.

On Wednesday, April 26th, classes for students in Saudi Arabia will resume after the Eid vacation. The 2022 academic year, which started in August and had 185 school days, will come to an end on June 22, 2023.

Ramadan, which this year commenced at sunset on March 22, will conclude on April 20 with the holy celebration of Eid al-Fitr, which is observed during the first three days of Shawwal, the 10th month in the Islamic calendar.

The formal announcement of the public and private sector vacations for Eid al-Fitr has not yet been revealed.
