What the list covers
The list is article 74 of the Ley Federal del Trabajo. Three of the days move to a Monday each year (first Monday of February, third Monday of March and third Monday of November). Banks follow the CNBV calendar, which closes on more days, and election days declared under electoral law are also rest days.
- 1 October every six years, when federal executive power is handed over, is also a rest day; the next is 2030.
- Article 83 of the Código de Comercio makes an obligation with no agreed term payable ten days after it was contracted, so state your term on the invoice.
