Here are the final post dates for Christmas 2021

An Post has confirmed their final post dates for this Christmas.

Christmas is coming and we have a mountain of cards to write. We may not be able to see all of our loved ones this year so we'll be sending cards all around the globe. From our cousins in Cork to our dear friends in Canada, An Post will take care of all festive mail. An Post is urging Irish people to send Christmas cards and gifts as soon as possible. With the ever-changing Covid situation, they stressed that the earlier you send your festive post the better. They will be sending millions of cards and parcels to people all around the world this Christmas. Customers have been warned that there will be no mail collection on December 24th. There will also be no mail delivery or collection on December 28th.
