NoteWhat we checked
The 2027 date matches two published calendars (China Highlights and a search summary of several calendar sites), checked in Oct 2026. Holidays differ by household and company, and this guide does not claim a Thai public holiday. Confirm with the recipient or the organization.
How to choose and send a wish in 3 steps
Pick the recipient group
Customers, family, partners or shop captions, then jump to that section.
Pick one or two Chinese phrases
Use phrases from the tables. A short correct phrase beats a long one you cannot read.
Add a line with the name
Add the recipient's name and one real thank-you before copying. It will not look like a mass send.
Basic Chinese New Year wishes: reading and meaning
These are phrases people use everywhere. The Thai reading approximates Mandarin and uses Thai tone marks only roughly. Pinyin is the international spelling. If you will say it aloud, have a native speaker listen once.

TipMandarin or Teochew
Many Thai-Chinese families know the Teochew sound, for example ซินนี้ฮวดไช้ (新年发财) [NEEDS: native check on the Thai spelling of the Teochew sound]. The tables use Mandarin because it matches pinyin you can look up. If the recipient prefers Teochew, send the characters with a Thai meaning rather than a reading.
Chinese New Year wishes for customers
A customer message needs three things: a short greeting, a real thank-you, and one wish. Replace {customer name} and {shop name} with real names every time. The examples are invented samples to adapt. The message bodies stay in Thai because they are meant for Thai-speaking customers.

Chinese New Year wishes for family and elders
Elders usually prefer messages about health and wellbeing over money. These phrases suit them, and the Thai line should be polite and use the term of address your family really uses.

长命百岁 (live to a hundred) suits close elders, but if you are unsure how the family feels about age, choose a health phrase such as 身体健康.

Chinese New Year captions for shops
A Chinese New Year post should say first whether the shop is open or closed, then add the promotion. {closing date} and {reopening date} are what customers most want to know, so put them near the top. More festival captions are in New Year captions and content plan.
Holiday closure notice
Chinese New Year promotion
Thank-you to customers
TipIn captions
Put the Chinese phrase on the first line as a heading and the Thai sentence after it. Readers who cannot read Chinese still understand. For a month of posts see the content calendar for festivals and payday.
Sending wishes by LINE OA or as a page post
To message many customers on LINE OA, use a broadcast and keep it short, with one promotion at most. Setup steps are in the LINE OA rich menu and broadcast guide. For page posts, publish on 5 to 6 February and make sure the image text is readable on a phone.
If you want your Chinese New Year post to be seen by more people, Instafollow's growth services can support it, for example adding followers or likes so the profile looks active. Results are not guaranteed and it does not replace good content. See the Instagram service page.
