International new years is like normal day in Vietnam, it kinda a resting day for employees so everything restaurants open like normal Only LUNAR TRADIONAL NEW YEARS (Chinese new years) is biggest holiday in Vietnam. Alots restaurants, place will close but there are place still open too Tết holiday (traditional new years) we have 8-10 day off. It’s the only times in years ppl have longest day off & immigrants from countryside working in city can go their hometown
30 December (lunar calendar) is last day of years!! This year 30 December 2023 Lunar Calendar is 9 February 2024 Officials get off at 28 December 2023 (7 February 2024) till 5 January 2014 (14 February 2024) its & day off this years. Officers will start working at 15 February 2024 (6 January 2024 Lunar calendar) But it about student, shools kids, officers workers, employees workers in companies/manufacturers) Services workers (hotel, restaurants, shopping malls, coffee, grab/taxi, public transportation,etc..) working like normal. Depend on restaurants & shop, they will have 2-3day off, but it was first day of Lunar New Year!! So you have no problems if Travel in Tradional New years, some place might close for couple day & open early. Not all place close, it bussiness!!
