YTO Express: YTO Express will observe the Spring Festival holiday from February 12, 2026 (the 25th day of the 12th lunar month) to February 23, 2026 (the 7th day of the 1st lunar month). Operations will officially resume on February 24, 2026 (the 8th day of the 1st lunar month). Prior to the holiday, the company's transportation lines will be gradually suspended.

The entire network will return to normal operations on February 24, 2026 (the 8th day of the 1st lunar month). Logistics services across provinces will also be suspended during the holiday period. Delivery times for shipments sent before and after the holiday may be affected. Customers are recommended to plan accordingly. For specific suspension dates for pickups and deliveries, please consult local outlets.
SF Express: Due to factors such as limited resource allocation during the holiday and potential extreme weather, delivery times may be affected to varying degrees. SF Express has formulated contingency plans in advance and is prepared for emergency responses to ensure smooth parcel handling. The company will also flexibly match parcel volumes with resources and dynamically adjust service charges as follows: 1. From January 19 to February 15, 2026, SF will impose a resource adjustment fee of 0.1 to 1.5 RMB/kg for some customers shipping products weighing 20kg or more. 2. During the Spring Festival holiday from February 16 to February 23, 2026, an additional resource adjustment fee will be applied to delivery services. 3. Some long-term, deep-cooperation monthly account customers and member customers may be eligible for discounts or waivers on the resource adjustment fee.
JD LOGISTICS: Domestically, all of JD Logistics' "Asia No. 1" smart industrial parks will operate 24/7 during the Spring Festival. The company will coordinate with hundreds of regional smart warehouses to build a stable, nationwide fulfillment network, continuing to provide services such as "same-day delivery" and "next-day delivery" with a commitment to reliability. Internationally, to ensure uninterrupted service overseas, over 130 of JD Logistics' overseas warehouses, bonded warehouses, and direct mail warehouses will remain operational to facilitate timely shipments. JD Logistics' overseas warehouses currently cover 23 countries and regions globally. For heavy-freight express services, a peak season resource adjustment fee of 0.1 to 1.2 RMB/kg will be added to the original price of express heavy goods products from January 19 to February 23, 2026. Some monthly account partners will be charged varying resource adjustment fees based on their specific cooperation products and timeframes. For details, consult your sales manager or check the merchant platform's internal announcements.
Deppon Express: To fully support delivery service demand during the "New Year Goods Festival" and the Spring Festival, and due to peak season traffic and local dispatch resource constraints, service fees will be dynamically adjusted as follows: 1. From January 19 to February 14, 2026, an additional fee of 0.2 to 0.5 RMB/kg will be applied to some customers and products. 2. From February 15 to February 23, 2026, a resource adjustment fee will be added for some customers and products. For long-term, deep-cooperation clients, different resource adjustment fee standards will apply based on the specific cooperation product. Detailed charges can be viewed on the order placement page.
Some franchise couriers announce non-stop Spring Festival service: In addition to direct-operated couriers, some express companies have officially announced they will maintain operations during the holiday. For instance, STO Express released a New Year Goods Festival support plan on January 23, stating that the 2026 festival period is extended, with order peaks nearing Double Eleven levels. During this time, its 76 transfer centers will operate normally, its Daniao "half-day delivery" service will continue, and a "flash sale 4-hour delivery" service will be launched in 12 key cities.
Pinduoduo, in its recently launched 2026 "Spring Festival Non-Stop" initiative, announced that Yunda and J&T Express will serve as special logistics partners for the platform during the holiday, providing services to non-stop merchants. Meanwhile, China Post, as Pinduoduo's exclusive comprehensive strategic partner, will also maintain normal parcel collection services.
