Read the detail
New Year's Day is January 1 in the Gregorian calendar, observed as a public holiday in almost every country. When it lands on a Saturday, US federal offices observe it on Friday December 31; on a Sunday, they observe it on Monday January 2. That observed date is what determines whether banks and post offices are closed.
The countdown to January 1 is also the countdown to the end of the tax year in the US, the UK personal deadline for using ISA allowances is April, and many gym and subscription promotions start the first week of January, so it is a useful planning anchor beyond the party.
