Mail to Canada From the USA Is Accepted Again as of Monday, January 6, 2025
NOTICE: Effective Monday, January 6, 2025, the United States Postal Service (USPS) will resume accepting International mail and packages bound for Canada.
We’re excited to report that Canada Post has made substantial progress in resolving delays resulting from the recent Canadian Union of Postal Workers strike. With services back on track, retail and commercial customers, along with users of online mailing systems, can now send letters, documents, and packages to Canada seamlessly, according to the USPS.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOU? Great news! If you’ve been holding off on mailing to Canada, you can now proceed with confidence. As always, LetterStream is ready and eager to assist with sending your international mail quickly and securely.
If you had previously uploaded jobs to be sent to Canada, that were then placed on hold, they will now be resumed and sent out starting on January 6th. Be sure to check your account to see updates and status.
HOW LETTERSTREAM SUPPORTS YOUR MAILING NEEDS: As a printing and mailing company, it is our duty to closely monitor postal service news to ensure our customers stay informed of critical updates. Whether it’s temporary service interruptions or resumptions like this, we’re here to help you navigate your mailing needs with ease and reliability.
For the latest updates on International mailing statuses, the USPS provides information through its Service Alerts page. You can also visit the Canada Post Negotiations page for updates on their progress.
