SBP Announced Eid-ul-Adha Bank Holidays

The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has announced public bank holidays on the occasion of Eid-ul-Adha 2022.

In a circular sent to the presidents and general directors of all banks, development finance institutions, and microfinance banks, the central bank announced that the SBP will be closed from July 8 to 12, 2022 (Friday to Tuesday) for a public holiday on the occasion of Eidul Adha.

Last week Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif approved a five-day Eid-ul-Adha holiday. The prime minister approved the Eid al-Adha holiday from July 8-12, according to a statement from the prime minister’s office.

It should be noted that Eid ul Adha 2022 in Pakistan is observed on July 10 (Sunday).
