Chinese New Year 2027 is on Saturday 6 February, with the second day on Sunday 7 February and the reunion dinner usually on Friday 5 February. Both festival days are public holidays in every state, as listed on our Malaysia public holidays page.
When should I order CNY gifts?
Order early. The earliest delivery date shows on each product page, and that is the date to trust. What to expect depends on the kind of gift.
- Orchids, 年花 and fruit-and-flower baskets (Penang Island, Seberang Perai, Kulim, Sungai Petani and nearby Kedah): hand-delivered by a local florist. Most designs need at least one day and one design needs longer. No Sunday or public holiday delivery.
- CNY jewellery (across Malaysia): sent by courier, about 5–10 working days. Count back that many working days from the day you need it, skipping weekends and public holidays, and leave a little extra.

Which days are closed for flower delivery?
Florist deliveries in Penang and nearby Kedah do not run on Sundays or public holidays. Around the festival, our delivery calendar shows Saturday 6 February and Sunday 7 February as closed. For a gift to arrive before the reunion dinner on Friday 5 February, pick a delivery date on or before that day, and use the date picker on the product page to see which days are still open.
Can I get same-day CNY delivery?
Please do not count on it. Most CNY designs need at least one day, so order before the day you need the gift. Same-day is never available on Sundays or public holidays, and never for jewellery.
What if I miss the date I wanted?
Choose the nearest open date on the product page. Chinese New Year visits and greetings run for about fifteen days, so a gift that lands a little after the reunion dinner still feels welcome. For someone outside Penang and Kedah, CNY jewellery is the gift that reaches them by courier. WhatsApp us if you are unsure.
What should I write on the card?
Keep it short: health, prosperity or a family wish. Ready lines in English, Malay and Chinese are in our CNY wishes and card messages.
