Public holidays in the Netherlands and Belgium: important to know
Public holidays in Belgium and the Netherlands can sometimes differ. As we are based in Belgium, we use Belgian public holidays as our closing days. This can sometimes be confusing for our Dutch customers, especially when we are closed on a Belgian public holiday while there is no public holiday in the Netherlands. Conversely, it can also happen that we are open on a Dutch public holiday.
Below is an overview of public holidays in both the Netherlands and Belgium. So you can easily see when we are open or closed, and adjust your planning accordingly.
