Save vacation days no later than 15 May

Published May 05, 2021

The summer holidays are fast approaching, but if you do not want to take all your vacation days, you must register how many days you want to save by 15 May. This applies if you have the form method. Of course, you can use the saved days later in the year, but not the other way around, ie. decide to save days later than May 15.

To see which method and how many vacation days you have: Log in to the self-reporting system, go to “My pages” and “My vacation”.

If you have the form method

  • If you are entitled to more than 20 paid vacation days this year you must take at least 20 vacation days, but may save excess days.
  • You can save excess days in the self-reporting system until May 15th, after that date the option is no longer available. Your saved days will then be consumed after the non-saved days are used. You can still use days of vacation that you have registered to be saved, but not the other way around, i.e. decide later than 15th May to register for saving.
  • As of 2018-01-01, you may have a maximum of 30 days saved. If you have more than 30 days saved, you must use those days before 2022-12-31.
