2025 Lunar New Year: The Year of the Snake

The Lunar New Year, also known as the Chinese New Year or Spring Festival, is a significant celebration in many Asian cultures. In 2025, the Lunar New Year begins on 29 January 2025, marking the start of the Year of the Snake.

The Year of the Snake is associated with qualities such as wisdom, intuition, and charm. Individuals born under this sign are believed to be perceptive, intelligent, and graceful.

Festivities typically span 15 days, culminating in the Lantern Festival. This year, the celebrations will conclude on 12 February 2025. The Year of the Snake will continue until 16 February 2026, when the Year of the Horse begins.

While NEI’s Singapore office will only be closed 29 January and 30 January, you may experience disruptions or delays in service as many of our service partner offices in eastern Asian countries that celebrate the holiday such as Bhutan, China, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, Tibet and Vietnam, are typically closed for the full extent of the public holiday from 29 January through 12 February 2025.
