"When a customer sends a postal item abroad, the cost of delivery must be settled between the sending and the delivering Post. The UPU oversees a set of international agreements to help set and settle the costs of delivery between its 192 member countries.
In the international mail process, the sending country assumes the costs of collection and transport of the item. Therefore, the destination country should only be reimbursed by the sending country of the costs incurred in providing the service corresponding to delivery. The remuneration rates that are agreed on by UPU member countries cover the cost of delivery in the destination country.
At the moment, each postal product – letter, parcel or Express Mail Service items – is remunerated by a separate system and set of agreements. These systems are constantly evolving. They are reviewed regularly at the UPU’s quadrennial Universal Postal Congress."
