How this service works
UK public (bank) holidays from GOV.UK for England and Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, optionally for one year. Official list published by GOV.UK; dates only, no working-day calculation.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the division queried, the year, a count of holidays, a list of bank holiday objects (each with date, title, notes, and bunting flag), the source URL (gov.uk), and a checkedAt timestamp indicating when the data was retrieved.
Example use cases
Payroll scheduling around UK holidays
“I need to know all the bank holidays in England and Wales for 2025 so I can adjust our payroll run dates — can you fetch the official list from GOV.UK?”
Scottish holiday calendar for project planning
“What are the official bank holidays in Scotland for 2026? I'm planning a project timeline and need to know which dates to avoid.”
Checking Northern Ireland holiday compliance
“Can you get me the complete list of bank holidays in Northern Ireland for this year so I can check our trading hours policy is compliant?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.chainmarket-api.workers.dev/api/finance/gov-uk-bank-holidays?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative, up-to-date UK bank holiday data without managing an API key or signup, especially in agentic workflows that require pay-per-call microtransactions via x402. Prefer it over scraping gov.uk directly or maintaining a static holiday list, as it wraps the official GOV.UK JSON feed with structured output and division filtering.
Side effects
- Invalid division string returns an error or defaults to england-and-wales
- Invalid or out-of-range year may return empty results or an error
- Payment failure over x402 protocol results in no charge and no response
- GOV.UK source unavailable may cause stale or failed data retrieval
