You did not read my earlier comment
They do not do Eid according to prefixed Islamic Calendar
Many years the date of moon sighting is different than the one going on in calendar
So Calendar may be showing 30th of Ramadhan but we can be celebrating Eid.
While on the duty paper it will be dated 30th Ramadhan just to know the official dates even in later years when one may forget the moon sighting

@farzanatasneem talking about moon sightning you cannot follow Macca's moon sightningin the whole world, same as we can't break the fast when the Sun sets in macca, because it could be 12 pm or 1 afternoon in outher countries. Quran and Hadith says see the moon and celebrate the eid. that's the fact and cannot be changed, it doesn't says anywhere in Quran that follow the Islamic calender for Eid celebration. Mohammad P.B.U.H had always celebrated eid on moon sightning.

Your statement is mispresented.
Saudi Arabian government follows Qur'an and Sunnah to declare the dates of festivals.

You do not need to watch his video if you do not believe in Islam as this video relates to deeper rulings of Islam.
Muhammad peace be upon him was the last Prophet of God and his rulings are the ones on which Judgement will be made on the day of Judgement.
Qur'an is the course book which contains baselines issues to be implemented in practical life if one wants to pass the examination of hereafter.
Those who will not believe and obey Muhammad pbuh will be the losers in hereafter

So even if according to sighting it is 11th of Ramadan, the writing on official papers will be 10th /12 Ramadhan as published on official calender while 11th fast will be ongoing.
It is a sin to doubt the intentions of Muslim Ummah

@qamar0786 It is wrong to doubt Saudi Arabian policies on Islam as there is probably only one country in the world that uses Islamic calender.
The Saudi Arabian government releases and official calender based on their approximate calculation of the months and all official works are based upon that calender while for religious incidents the moon is sighted and sighting is announced .

Mufti Taqi Usmani حفظه الله stated: ‘In Saudi Arabia the sighting of the moon has been accepted before even the birth of the moon on many occasions which is impossible in my view. I have discussed the situation with many Saudi Scholars and they are also disturbed with these occurrences. However, since this is in the hands of the Majlisul Qadha Al-A’la (Saudi Supreme Court Riyadh) they are helpless.’ (19th Rabi us Thani 1412AH)
