Malaysia Public Holidays 2026-2035

Complete 10-year public-holiday calendar for Malaysia, ready for Odoo HR. National and religious holidays — auto-applied to resource.calendar as leave entries.

What this module does

This module automatically loads every official public holiday of Malaysia for the years 2026 through 2035 into your Odoo system. National holidays (fixed-date) and religious / movable holidays are included based on each country's official sources. Each holiday is one click away from being added to all active resource.calendar records as leave entries, which means employee leave allocation is computed correctly out of the box. A built-in ir.cron re-runs the apply step every January 2nd so the calendar stays current year after year.

Key Features

10 Years of Data

All 2026-2035 official holidays at the federal/national level.

Resource Calendar Integration

Apply to Calendars button on each holiday — one click sends that holiday to every active work calendar as a leave entry.

Yearly Auto Cron

Built-in ir.cron re-applies automatically every January 2nd, starting the year after install; the install year itself needs one manual click.

Half-Day / Full-Day

Configurable per holiday, with timezone-aware timestamps.

Timezone Aware

Leave entries are stored in UTC but respect each work calendar's timezone — accurate for multi-tenant setups.

Locale-Specific Spelling

Holiday names use Malaysia's local English spelling conventions; the module's own screens follow Odoo's interface language.

Requirements

  • Odoo 18.0, 19.0 or 20.0
  • Standard hr_holidays module installed

Installation

Copy the module folder into your Odoo addons path, restart Odoo, then install from the Apps menu. After installation, navigate to HR → Time Off → Malaysia, open a holiday record and use the "Apply to Calendars" button - one click applies that holiday to every active resource.calendar; repeat per holiday.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Odoo versions does this module support?

This module supports Odoo 18.0, Odoo 19.0 and Odoo 20.0. Each Odoo series is on its own Git branch (18.0 and 19.0) and registered separately on the Apps Store.

Does this module cover all years from 2026 to 2035?

Yes — a full 10-year public holiday calendar is included for Malaysia, with national / federal-level holidays plus religious / movable holidays derived from official sources.

How are holidays applied to employee calendars?

Open HR → Time Off → Malaysia Holidays, open a holiday record and click "Apply to Calendars" — that one holiday is written to every active resource.calendar as a resource.calendar.leaves entry, honored by hr.leave.allocation. Repeat per holiday; there is no bulk button yet.

Are religious / movable holidays included?

Yes. 82 of the 2026-2035 records are tagged "Religious" for Malaysia (e.g. Tahun Baharu Cina, Tahun Baharu Cina (Hari Kedua)); movable/lunar dates carry standard-source estimates with ±1 day precision.

Is the holiday calendar timezone-aware?

Yes. Each leave entry is stored in UTC but generated relative to the resource.calendar's own timezone, so multi-tenant deployments and employees in different time zones see correct boundaries.

Does the module auto-renew for new years?

Partially — a built-in ir.cron job re-applies the current year's holidays every January 2nd, but only from the year after installation onward; the install year itself needs one manual click.
