Post Offices

Post offices in Germany offer an excellent service and there are around all the country. Prices are variable, depending of the letter’s size and weight, but usually sending a package from Germany to another country can be expensive. The main post office company is the "Deutsche Post", but there are also other companies that deliver letters and packages.

Many of post offices’ services have been modernized, but the traditional delivery of letters and packages is still quick giving to the German post office a good reputation.The zip codes have changed since reunification; one city can have several zip codes, so it is important know the exact address to deduct the five-digit code. Fortunately, you can find the zip codes in many directories at local post offices.

Post offices are generally open Monday to Friday from 8am to 6pm, and on Saturdays until midday.
