Can I download the February 2027 holidays as a calendar file?
Yes. Every country's year page offers free ICS, CSV and PDF files that import straight into Google, Apple or Outlook Calendar, and subscribing to the ICS URL keeps the dates updated if a government revises them. Month pages have no file of their own — download per country instead.
Are these days off for everyone in those countries?
Not necessarily. The table aggregates nationwide statutory holidays. Australia, Malaysia, India and Canada add state- or province-level days on top, so the real count there is higher; annual leave and employer shutdowns are not counted either. Observances that are not days off are excluded.
