Hello Sellers,

With Christmas and New Year’s Day falling on a Sunday, we wanted to provide some clarification around Amazon’s observance of shipping holidays.


If you are a FBM Seller,

Christmas Day (12/25/2022) will be observed on Monday, 12/26/2022. Similarly, New Year’s Day (01/01/2023) will be observed on Monday, 01/02/2023.

Here is a complete list of shipping holidays in 2023:

  • New Year - observed on 01/02/2023
  • Martin Luther King Day - 01/16/2023
  • Washington’s Birthday - 02/20/2023
  • Memorial Day - 05/29/2023
  • Juneteenth National Independence Day - 06/19/2023
  • Independence Day - 07/04/2023

  • Columbus Day - 10/09/2023
  • Veteran’s Day - 11/11/2023
  • Thanksgiving Day - 11/23/2023
  • Christmas Day - 12/25/2023

If you are a FBA Seller,

You will not have assigned ship dates on the following holidays:

  • Memorial Day
  • Independence Day
  • Labor Day
  • Thanksgiving Day
  • Christmas Day (observed on Sunday, 12/25/2022)
  • New Year’s Day (observed on Sunday, 01/01/2023)

TBH I’m usually working through those days and just update tracking on the day it’s assigned/label created.

Even during weekends and holidays when there’s no delivery, the main distribution and processing offices for USPS are still processing mail. My location is picked-up the same as blue post office mailboxes. We ship on every day that the box truck shows-up. That includes two non-ship days: Labor Day, New Year’s Day. Some years they’ll come on Memorial Day and Independence Day (I need to check with the driver that week). The truck never comes on Thanksgiving and Christmas.
