For degree zero, compactness and the maximum modulus principle make holomorphic functions constant on each connected component. For degree two, a holomorphic differential form is $\bar{\partial }$-closed and its $\partial$ derivative has type $(3,0)$, which vanishes on a complex surface. Degrees above two have no nonzero holomorphic forms. It remains to treat a holomorphic differential form $\alpha$ of degree one.

Set $\beta =d\alpha =\partial \alpha$. Its coefficients are holomorphic, so $\beta$ is a holomorphic differential form of degree two, hence closed by the degree-two observation. Its conjugate is closed too. The Stokes theorem givesThe integrand is nonnegative in the complex orientation. In local coordinates, if $\beta =b(z)d{z}_1\wedge d{z}_2$ with $z_j=x_j+i{y}_j$, thenIt is strictly positive wherever $\beta$ is nonzero. Its zero integral therefore forces $\beta =0$ everywhere. Thus holomorphic forms on a compact complex surface are closed, even when the surface is not Kähler:
