Answer 1

To get the first of next month:

let d = new Date();
d.setMonth(d.getMonth() + 1, 1);

Then to format as dd/mm/yyyy:

d.toLocaleDateString('en-GB');

As a runnable snippet:

 let d = new Date(); d.setMonth(d.getMonth() + 1, 1); console.log(d.toLocaleDateString('en-GB'));

Answer 2

You can use toLocaleDateString

 var now = new Date(); var current; if (now.getMonth() == 11) { current = new Date(now.getFullYear() + 1, 0, 1); } else { current = new Date(now.getFullYear(), now.getMonth() + 1, 1); } console.log(current.toLocaleDateString());
