Germany is wrong – should be light green.
Light green for Portugal

And yes, I’m aware that it will be somewhat inaccurate, that’s why I’m curious about your insights since information online can be really contradicting about certain countries.
In Austria, there are officially no “part of the day” public holidays. 24 December is legally a normal working day. However, in most collective agreements and employment contracts, the afternoon is free (sometimes from 12 noon, sometimes from 2 pm). In some industries, the whole day is free.
Norway is light green, kinda. No work (except obvious exceptions) after 1500, and most employers outside retail etc will most likely give you the day off.

This color coding sucks.
In Czechia, it’s also only a part of the day. At least for retail.
Croatia should be light green
In Hungary it’s not an „official“ holiday but instead a „moved“ Saturday. We don’t work on the 24th, instead we work on another Saturday to balance it off. 🥲
What happens on 24 dec?
You guys should run your pictures through a [color blindness simulator](https://pilestone.com/pages/color-blindness-simulator) before finalizing them.
It’s only full public holiday in Poland from this year. It was part of the day till last year.
As for Russia, it’s because we celebrate Christmas on January 7th
Absolutely shitty color coding, I’m not sure if I can tell apart 2 lighter greens on the map with my absolutely perfect color sight. Comments mentioning this get downvoted. Someone’s butthurt 😀
It is a public holiday in Ukraine and should be an official day off but we don’t have them since it is war.
In Lithuania, Christmas Eve arguably a more important celebration than Christmas. Part of this comes from Poland, our closest country religiously. Part from ancient pagan celebration of returning sun.
For the longest time it was a working day which made it a miserable experience as traditionally you have to prepare dinner with 12 courses.
For anyone curios dec. 24 is a de factor holiday here in Denmark because we celebrate christmas on christmas eve and not christmas day
TIL (well, more TIR since I used to know but forgor) Poland just passed the law to make Christmas Eve a public holiday and 2025 will be the first year when we will not work on 24th of December.
It’s a de facto holiday in Sweden, there are no partial offical holidays.
Fun fact, in Ukraine we have 25th as a holiday, as well as 7th of January. We love Christ so much we celebrate it twice.
