Ramadan 1448
Ramadan 2027 in Venezuela
The expected start date, who decides it, and first-day suhoor and iftar times across 1 city.
How Venezuela decides
Venezuela's religious authority looks for the physical new moon each month rather than relying on a fixed calculation.
Venezuela has no single formal national Islamic sighting authority; the Foreign Ministry (MPPRE) issued a public greeting marking the start of Ramadan on March 1, 2025, aligned with the global Sunni majority date. The 2026 (1447) first day of fasting could not be verified from an in-country source; recorded as null rather than guessed.
