Editorial boundary
These pages explain official holiday calendars and source status. They do not guarantee the open or closed status of a specific office, post office, private bank, school, or business.
Topic boundary
Holiday calendars are not universal open/closed guarantees
The federal holidays topic brings together OPM, USPS, and Federal Reserve holiday sources. Those sources answer different questions. OPM lists the federal employee holiday calendar, USPS lists Postal Service holiday dates and points readers to location/service checks, and Federal Reserve K.8 lists Federal Reserve System holidays with its own Saturday and Sunday notes.
Because the sources have different scopes, this hub does not claim that every private business, bank branch, school, state office, post office counter, collection box, lobby, or agency location follows one schedule.
Source roles
OPM
Use OPM for the federal employee holiday calendar and the general Saturday/Sunday observation rule for most federal employees.
USPS
Use USPS for Postal Service holiday dates, location lookups, holiday service schedule guidance, and service-alert checks.
Federal Reserve
Use Federal Reserve K.8 for Federal Reserve Banks, Branches, and Board of Governors holiday schedule context. Private-bank hours still need direct bank verification.
Best use
Start with the holiday calendar if you need the year overview. Use the USPS, bank, or federal-office guide if you need the boundary for a specific service. For local hours or same-day errands, check the specific agency, post office, or bank directly.
