Domestic parcels will reach their destination by Christmas when you send them by December 20. The last mailing date for Small Parcels that are delivered to the mail slot is December 16. You can pay for a parcel online at posti.fi/send , through the OmaPosti app or at a Posti service point. You can drop off prepaid parcels at any service point or parcel locker.
The last day to send cards with the no-value indicator stamp for Christmas greetings is Thursday, December 12. Cards need to be dropped off at a letterbox or service point by midnight. You can still send Christmas cards on Monday, December 16, when you use the domestic no-value indicator stamp and drop off the card in a letterbox before its emptying time. Emptying times are written on the letterboxes.
Remember the correct address
When sending Christmas greetings, please make sure you have the correct address details on your cards and parcels. Each Christmas greeting should include the recipient’s first and last name, street address, building number, stairway and apartment number, and the city or municipality. You can check the correct format of street names and postal codes at posti.fi/en/zip-code-search .
When sending parcels, we recommend also including the recipient’s phone number, since they will then receive the notice of arrival more quickly. If you are missing the phone number, please purchase the Additional Paper Arrival Notification service and send your parcel by Friday, December 13, for the recipient to get their paper notice of arrival on time.
Thank you for picking up your parcel quickly
Parcel volumes are currently high. We recommend picking up parcels quickly once they arrive to make room for others.
