🌙 The Eid date is determined by moon-sighting on the 29th night of Ramadan
📌 If the moon is sighted → the next day is Eid
📌 If the moon is not sighted → fasting continues for the full 30 days, and Eid falls the following day
However, in Thailand, each family may begin the month of Ramadan on a slightly different day. In B.E. 2568 (2025):
- Ramadan begins on 2 March 2025 (per the Chularajmontri Office announcement)
- Ramadan begins on 1 March 2025 (per other announcements)
As a result, the start of moon-sighting and its outcome may differ as follows:
📅 Estimated Moon-Sighting and Eid Date Table (2025)
| Fasting Basis | Ramadan Start Date per 2025 announcement | Estimated Moon-Sighting Night (29th of Ramadan) | Estimated Eid Date (if moon is sighted) | Estimated Eid Date (if moon is not sighted) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Per the Chularajmontri Office announcement | 2 March 2025 | 30 March 2025 | 31 March 2025 | 1 April 2025 |
| Other | 1 March 2025 | 29 March 2025 | 30 March 2025 | 31 March 2025 |
📝 Summary
- Eid may fall between 30 March and 1 April 2025, depending on the moon-sighting result and each family’s practice
- The 29th night of Ramadan is the key night for determining the end of Ramadan
- The determination of Eid may vary by country, community, family, and religious organization
