Customer Advisory: Lunar New Year 2026
As Lunar New Year 2026 approaches, we would like to inform you of potential impacts on logistics and supply chain operations in the region. This year, the Lunar New Year holiday period will take place from February 15 through February 23, with peak factory closures and reduced operational capacity expected around the official public holidays.
Key Considerations:
- Production & Shipping Delays: Many factories and suppliers may close for extended holidays. Shipments scheduled during this period may experience delays.
- Port & Carrier Congestion: Increased cargo volumes before and after the holiday may result in congestion at ports and with carriers.
- Customs & Documentation: Processing times may be longer due to reduced staffing.
Recommendations:
- Advance Planning: Schedule shipments early to avoid disruption.
- Buffer Time: Include additional transit time for orders arriving or departing during the holiday period.
- Communication: Stay in contact with your local JAS representative for updates and alternative options if needed.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Our teams are ready to support you with proactive planning to minimize disruptions and ensure smooth operations throughout the Lunar New Year period.
