Hello everyone,

Something as simple as receiving mail can become a whole new experience when you settle in Tunisia as an expat. Mailing management can indeed be different from what you are used to. In order to help other expats and soon-to-be expats, we invite you to share your insights.

How do you receive mail in Tunisia? Do you have a traditional mailbox, a PO Box, or another system?

How was it to set it up and what are the formalities?

Is the postal service reliable and secure?

How do you handle missed deliveries or forwarding your mail?

Do you have any tips you would like to share to newcomers and fellow expats?

Share your insights and experience.

Thank you for your contribution.

The post comes Monday through Friday and if you live in the towns and most populated villages, it will come with some regularity. During Ramadan and Eid the delivery is irregular.

If you have packages, you will get a slip to pick up the parcel at either the Post Office or Customs.
