Message from Royal Mail
2023-01-12
We received the following message from Royal Mail on Thursday 12th Jan 2023. As such we will have to suspend delivery to addresses outside of the UK for the time being. We will keep you updated and let you know as soon as we hear more from Royal Mail.
For customers abroad with orders outstanding we will keep an eye on them but looks like they won't be moving for a while. You are (as always) fully covered in the event of loss. I can't thank you all enough for how understanding you are with the ongoing delays due to the strikes and it pains me to put on customers again, but, I have to ask for your continued patience during this time whilst we try to work this out. I'm so sorry for any inconvenience caused during this time. Please get in touch if you have any questions at all.

Dear Fern
Royal Mail is continuing to experience severe service disruption to
International export services following a cyber incident. As a result, we are
still temporarily unable to despatch items to overseas destinations.
In order to support
faster recovery when our service is restored and to prevent a build-up of
export items in our network, we are continuing to ask customers not to post
international export items until further notice.
The following services for parcels and letters are affected:
- Royal Mail International Tracked
- Royal Mail International Tracked & Signed
- Royal Mail International Standard
Items that have already been despatched may be subject to
delays. All export items already received by Royal Mail are being processed
through the Royal Mail UK network and held securely for export processing to
recommence as soon as our export despatch systems are available again.
Our import operations continue to perform a full service, with some minor
delays. Parcelforce Worldwide export services are still operating to all
international destinations though customers should expect minor delays. Royal
Mail UK services are still operating.
We’ll update service information about this incident on our website and on
our Click and Drop and third-party shipping systems as soon as we have more
information.
In the meantime, our teams are working around the clock with external experts
to help resolve this disruption and we would like to sincerely apologise for
any disruption this incident is causing.

Yours sincerely
Antony Harvey
International Managing Director
