No international post royal mail
You're referring to the Royal Mail's decision to stop delivering international mail to certain countries.
In October 2021, Royal Mail announced that it would be suspending its international mail services to several countries due to concerns over the financial sustainability of these services. The affected countries include:
- Afghanistan
- Burundi
- Central African Republic
- Democratic Republic of the Congo
- Eritrea
- Guinea-Bissau
- Liberia
- Mali
- Somalia
- South Sudan
- Sudan
- Syria
- Yemen
Royal Mail cited a number of reasons for this decision, including:
- High levels of undeliverable mail
- Poor postal infrastructure in some countries
- Security concerns
- Financial losses
The suspension of international mail services to these countries means that Royal Mail will no longer accept mail for delivery to these destinations. This applies to both personal and business mail, including letters, parcels, and packages.
If you need to send mail to one of these countries, you may need to consider alternative options, such as using a private courier service or a different postal operator.
