Which countries / territories celebrate Lunar New Year as an official holiday and for how many days? East Asia - China: 7 days (Chinese New Year) - Taiwan: 7 days (Lunar New Year) - Hong Kong: 3 days (Chinese New Year) - Macau: 3 days (Chinese New Year) - Mongolia: 3 days (Tsagaan Sar) - South Korea: 3 days (Seollal) - Bhutan: 2 days (Losar) - North Korea: 1 day (Seollal) Southeast Asia - Vietnam: 7 days (Tet) - Singapore: 3 days (Chinese New Year) - Malaysia: 3 days (Chinese New Year) - Philippines: 2 days (Chinese New Year) - Indonesia: 1 days (Chinese New Year) - Brunei: 1 day (Lunar New Year) - East Timor: 1 day (Lunar New Year) Other - Suriname: 1 day (Lunar New Year) - Mauritius: 1 day (Chinese Spring Festival) (image courtesy of Statista) NOTE 1: Image below differs from above list. Bhutan, Mongolia, North Korea, South Korea, and Vietnam celebrate lunar year holidays but are not considered Chinese New Year in Statista's below map. Chinese New Year is not an official national holiday in Thailand, so it has not been included in above list, but is in below map from Statista. NOTE 2: Holiday names and number of days for holiday based on official government announcements from each country. #Going to China πŸ‡¨πŸ‡³ #Expats in China #Data is beautiful
