Postal delays in Brazil due to industrial action

No primary category set

Since mid September there have been delays with mail destined for Brazil following reports of widespread industrial action in the country.

Originally Royal Mail advised that there could be delays of at least 10 days from posting to delivery, but we’ve now heard via UKP Worldwide that due to a large backlog at the Post Office, it has been advised that no further cargo is able to be accepted due to lack of room.

It’s currently unclear how long the situation may go on, but if you’ve posted items through the mail to Brazilian customers in the past couple of weeks it may be worth advising them of possible delays.
