Postage in TRNC

The North Cyprus outgoing postal system is reliable. Incoming mail must be suffixed “Mersin-10, Turkey” and not “Northern Cyprus”. The history of the postal service in North Cyprus will definitely be of interest to all philatelists.

Stamps can be bought from post offices, many small shops and hotel receptions in Northern Cyprus. Mail sent to Europe should arrive in seven days. You can take mail to the post office or alternatively there are small yellow post boxes, but these are not frequently emptied. Many Northern Cyprus hotels will also post your mail if you leave it at reception.

There are postal deliveries to some local individual addresses but the more reliable method of receipt of mail is to rent a post box (P.O. Box). This facility is available in Kyrenia (Girne), Nicosia (Lefkoşa), Famagusta (Gazi Mağusa), Morphou (Güzelyurt) and a few of the surrounding villages.
