Trends of importing Chinese red envelopes for Tet 2026
The market this year records a strong comeback of red envelope models in traditional styles but processed with modern technology. The colors red – gold, calligraphy, God of Wealth, Binh Ngo Horse, classic patterns… are still the main themes, but are expressed more delicately thanks to gold foil stamping, embossing, and 3D patterns. Besides, the minimalist style continues to lead the aesthetics of young people, with deep red, plum red, champagne gold tones and high-quality art paper materials. These models are not too fussy but are luxurious, suitable for corporate and office customers.

Importing through Viet Trung Company – A package, safe, and cost-optimized solution

With a logistics system in Guangzhou – Bang Tuong and a direct support team in China, Viet Trung ensures the entire process from sourcing, price negotiation, goods inspection, payment to official shipping takes place quickly and transparently.

Order red envelopes on Taobao, 1688, Tmall
If you want to try samples or import small quantities, you can order directly through Chinese e-commerce platforms like Taobao, 1688, and Tmall. These platforms have extremely rich red envelope categories, updating new models continuously with super cheap prices, usually from only a few hao to a few yuan. However, to order successfully, you need an Alipay wallet, a receiving address in China, and experience in filtering reputable shops. Therefore, many people still choose to combine ordering with an intermediary unit to ensure safety.
Below is a list of some high-selling Lunar New Year red envelope shops on Taobao and 1688 that you can refer to:
Buying goods directly at Guangzhou markets
For shop owners who have the ability to go to China directly, markets such as Bach Ma, Wanling Plaza, or Thien Hoa Market are “paradises” of red envelopes. Here, you can easily find the hottest trend models, directly see the paper material, print color, and finish before importing in large quantities. Prices at wholesale markets are usually much lower than buying online, but this option requires large capital, negotiation skills, and travel time.
Ordering directly from Chinese manufacturing factories
This is a suitable solution for customers who want to make their own samples or print brand logos. Ordering from factories helps to save significant costs per unit and ensures exclusivity. However, you need to order a large minimum quantity, while also controlling quality and production progress.
Importing red envelopes at Vietnamese wholesale markets
For customers who need to get goods quickly, wholesale markets like Kim Bien, Tan Binh, Dong Xuan… always have domestic Chinese red envelopes available. The advantage is being able to see the goods directly and buy in small quantities. However, models at the market usually “follow behind” the Chinese market and the import price is higher than taking directly from the factory.

3D Pop-up Red Envelopes
3D Pop-up Red Envelopes
This year’s 3D red envelope line continues to create attraction thanks to the pop-up effect when opening the envelope. Images of the God of Wealth, cartoon characters, the Binh Ngo mascot, or lucky patterns are presented in embossed form, creating a very eye-catching depth. The red-gold foil stamping tones are sharply processed, helping the overall look be both joyful and luxurious. This is a very suitable model for online shops because it is easy to “catch trends” and create strong interaction.
Red Envelopes Illustrating Tet Atmosphere
Red envelope models illustrating traditional Tet scenes such as children in bustling new clothes, vibrant lion dances, family reunions… are being pushed for production by many Chinese factories. With a soft drawing style and warm colors, this type hits the buyer’s nostalgic emotions strongly. This is a very suitable choice for the family and office customer segments, and those who love Vietnamese – East Asian values.
Zodiac Animal Printed Red Envelopes
Zodiac Animal Printed Red Envelopes
Every year when Tet comes, red envelope models printed with zodiac animals are always in the top best-sellers, and the Year of the Binh Ngo 2026 is no exception. The horse image is designed in many styles: cute cartoon, classic brushstrokes, minimalist style, or embossed gold foil printing. The strength of this line is its high symbolism, suitable for giving lucky money to young children, relatives, as well as corporate customers.
Lion Head Shaped Red Envelopes
The lion head shaped red envelope model is always favored because it carries the message of dispelling bad luck and welcoming wealth. The 2026 version is upgraded by Chinese factories with prominent red, blue, and yellow lion designs; metallic borders and 3D embossed patterns. This is an easy-to-sell line for all audiences, especially suitable for children and young people who love an active style.
Feng Shui Red Envelopes
Red envelope models carrying feng shui elements always occupy a large market share because they are suitable for gifting, especially to office and corporate customers. Strong dragon symbols, noble phoenixes, or the characters Phuc – Loc – Tho (Fortune – Prosperity – Longevity) are designed on art paper with luxurious gold foil stamping, helping the overall look become high-class. This type has a high profit margin because customers often buy them in sets as gifts.
Modern Design Red Envelopes
Modern Design Red Envelopes
Modern red envelope models using fun patterns, pastel colors, or short English words are particularly loved by young people.
