Can i send pre printed postcards in canada mail

Yes, you can send pre-printed postcards in Canada through Canada Post. Here are some guidelines to keep in mind:

  1. Postage: You'll need to affix the correct postage to the postcard. The cost of postage depends on the weight and size of the postcard, as well as the destination. You can use a postage stamp or a postage meter.
  2. Size and shape: Postcards must be rectangular in shape and not exceed 14.5 cm (5.7 in) in length, 9.5 cm (3.7 in) in width, and 0.5 mm (0.02 in) in thickness.
  3. Weight: Postcards must weigh no more than 30 grams (1.06 oz).
  4. Content: The postcard must not contain any prohibited or restricted items, such as hazardous materials, perishable goods, or items that could be considered offensive or harmful.
  5. Addressing: Make sure to address the postcard correctly, including the recipient's name, street address, city, province, and postal code.
  6. Postage rates: As of 2022, the cost of postage for a standard postcard in Canada is $1.15 for a domestic postcard and $2.15 for an international postcard.

You can send pre-printed postcards through Canada Post in various ways:

  1. Drop off at a post office: Take your pre-printed postcards to a Canada Post office and hand them over to a postal employee. They'll weigh and process the postcards for you.
  2. Use a postage meter: If you have a postage meter, you can print the postage directly onto the postcard.
  3. Use a self-adhesive stamp: You can also use a self-adhesive stamp to affix the postage to the postcard.

Remember to check the Canada Post website for any updates on postage rates, sizes, and regulations before sending your pre-printed postcards.
