Quick answer

Book Time Off adds Malta’s public holidays to the calendar automatically, marked as non-working days. They are never taken off anyone’s allowance, and the list is a sensible default you can edit.
Find it under Settings › General › Public holidays

Open General settings
Go to Settings › General.
Public holidays are automatic
The Public holidays field shows Malta (public holidays) and is read-only. There is no region to choose and nothing to switch on · Malta’s public holidays load automatically, appear on the calendar and stay up to date on their own.

Public holidays are never deducted
