Send cash by post
That is why letters with gifts of money are forbidden
Regardless of whether it is a large or small amount of cash: You are not officially allowed to send a single note in a normal letter.
A birthday card with a bank note is a popular gift in many families – but the post office officially forbids cash in letters. Instead, small amounts of money have to be sent in a very specific way.
For many children it is a nice surprise on their birthday or Christmas when a greeting card arrives in the mail from their grandparents or other relatives with a small gift. This is also a practical way for adults to quickly and easily spread a little joy on the holiday. What many of us do not know, however, is that it is precisely this type of cash dispatch that is officially prohibited by Deutsche Post.
“Sending cash in normal letters is not permitted!”
Since the company is aware that hardly anyone knows this rule, it posted a post on Facebook about the ban. This note does not refer to larger amounts of money, but is also expressly meant for the small monetary gifts that are enclosed with a greeting card. And what is behind this ban?
