How do you send a letter or postcard from Georgia abroad?
Weight, size and the Georgian Post tariff calculator.
Short answer
Georgian Post accepts letters and postcards for abroad, and the calculator on gpost.ge shows the price for your country and weight. A postcard may weigh up to 20 g and must measure from 90x140 to 120x235 mm. A simple letter is accepted up to 500 g and a registered letter up to 2 kg.
Why
- Georgian Post defines a postcard as a special blank of stiff paper or cardboard, sent open without an envelope.
- A simple letter has no tracking number and is delivered without signature, while a registered one has a tracking number and is delivered with signature.
- The price depends on the country and weight, so it is calculated in the website calculator, not from one general table.
- Postcards and envelopes are sold in the shop on gpost.ge.
Details
Size figures: a letter may be up to 50 mm thick, and a hybrid letter weighs up to 100 g and has at most 15 sheets. A small packet is up to 2 kg. A simple letter with a tracking code but no signature on delivery is called simple plus, and compensation claims are not accepted for it. Insurance on a valuable letter cannot exceed the actual value or 2,000 GEL.
For international letter prices, use the calculator on the Georgian Post website and pick the country and weight. The call centre is +995 32 224 09 09. Georgian postal codes are listed in Postal codes in Georgia.
Tip
Before going to the post office, work out the price in the calculator on gpost.ge: pick the country and weight to know the amount in advance.
What may differ
The tariff depends on the destination country, weight and type of item (simple, registered, insured). Rules and the website calculator may change.
