Office and factory closures for the upcoming Chinese New Year can last from February 6 to February 14, depending on the country:
China: | February 7 – 13 |
Hong Kong: | February 8 – 10 |
Taiwan: | February 6 – 14 |
The potential for delays extends to the weeks just prior to the holiday, when there is usually a surge of shipments by companies trying to avoid the holiday closures. It is, therefore, recommended that booking arrangements for impending shipments be made as early as possible to avoid delays.
