The red envelope delivers Christmas greetings affordably

20.11.2025

Sending Christmas greetings is now even easier. Posti will deliver red mailing envelopes to homes. You can also pick up envelopes from any Posti outlet or most stamp retailers. Please note that envelopes will not be delivered to households with a no-advertising notice.

With the red envelope, you can send Christmas cards using the more affordable Christmas greeting no-value indicator stamp. If you drop off your greetings at a Posti outlet or letterbox by Thursday 11 December at the latest, they’ll arrive in time for Christmas. Delivery begins already on 1 December.
