Royal Mail International Update – Country suspensions

Royal Mail Plane Shipping Internationally Royal Mail International Update

In the latest Royal Mail International Update, they say that they are working every day with their airline and in country partners across the globe to maintain services. The rapidly changing nature of the impact of Coronavirus means access to countries is changing and the global picture can vary day to day.

It’s important to say that most major export routes remain open and Royal Mail is continuing to accept, process and transport mail out of the UK for delivery across the globe. However, there is a lack of available air transport to a growing number of countries as authorities restrict the movement of people across borders. In some cases, there is also a suspension of in country postal operations. Where this is the case, Royal Mail are strongly advising our customers against sending items to these destinations, for the time being.

As a result Royal Mail are suspending services to 43 countries (listed below). The suspensions cover all the services to these individual countries. These suspensions will remain in place until further notice or until such time as they are able to move mail into the affected countries for onward delivery.

What this means for you is that if you ship to these countries it’s probably worth adjusting your marketplace and website settings to block buyers until Royal Mail services resume. Alternatively, make sure your shipping rate table takes into account you’ll be using a courier service rather than mail services for the foreseeable future.
