The 2022 New Year Honours are appointments by some of the 15 Commonwealth realms to various orders and honours to recognise and reward good works by citizens of those countries. The New Year Honours are awarded as part of the New Year celebrations at the start of January and those for 2022 were announced on 31 December 2021.
These were the final New Year's Honours awarded by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. She died nine months later on September 8, 2022 at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, after celebrating her Platinum Jubilee in June 2022, ending her 70 year reign.
The recipients of honours are displayed as they were styled before their new honour and arranged by the country whose ministers advised Elizabeth II on the appointments, then by the honour and by the honour's grade (i.e. Knight/Dame Grand Cross, Knight/Dame Commander etc.), and then by divisions (i.e. Civil, Diplomatic, and Military), as appropriate.
