To ensure your letter arrives at your destination on time, it is best to choose your postage carefully. Current wife guides you on the different deadlines available to you so that your mail arrives on time in your recipient’s mailbox.
How long for a green letter?
If you are not in a hurry, you can opt for the Green Letter. This postage ensures delivery within an indicative period of three days after dispatch. You can use this stamp for any mail up to 20 grams, but also for a small parcel (up to 2 kilograms, 60 centimeters in length and 3 centimeters in thickness). If in doubt about the dimensions of your package, do not hesitate to use the rulers available on certain automatic franking machines, or ask a post office advisor. You can also choose a “tracked letter” or “registered letter” option depending on your needs. The price will be slightly higher, but the delivery time will remain the same.
What deadlines for the red e-letter?
If your mail is urgent, it is better to post it with a red e-letter (which has replaced the Priority Letter since January 1, 2023). You can buy it online or at the post office. With this postage, you can count on an indicative delivery time of one working day. If you want to send documents abroad, you will need to take a purple stamp (the International Letter).
