All Implemented Interfaces:
Function<Integer,LocalDate>, Predicate<Integer>, Observance
public class QatarBanksHoliday extends AbstractObservance
Observance of the Qatar Banks Holiday — the first Sunday of March.

Mandated by Cabinet Decision No. (33) of 2009 for all banks, money exchange outlets, investment and financial companies, insurance firms, and insurance broker companies operating in the State of Qatar. Sunday is a working day in Qatar (Friday + Saturday weekend), so this closure falls on the first business day of March in most years.

This holiday applies to the QAR (QSE/QCB) settlement calendar only; it is not a gazetted national public holiday and is not included in QA.
