Harare - Post Report Question and Answers
How do you send and receive your letters and package mail? Are local postal facilities adequate?
Diplomatic pouch, which (as always with pouch) has a lot of restrictions. Local postal facilities are not reliable, though I believe some people have used DHL successfully when they had to. - Jan 2024
Pouch, DHL and FedEx were also available. - May 2021
Diplomatic pouch. Amazon orders usually take fewer than two weeks. I would not consider local post... - Feb 2020
Pouch. God bless the pouch. I believe local mail is somewhat reliable, but takes a long time and customs is problematic with packages. - Feb 2019
We use the Pouch. If we place an order from Amazon for next day shipping, it will arrive to us in about 1 week. Letters to the States take about one week. The pouch is AMAZING, with the only limitation being liquid amounts and batteries. Your items will get rejected if they have a prohibited item. We can use FedEx and DHL. I used FedEx for a sensitive document. It arrived in 3 business days and costs me $44. People often say that mail is expensive, but we are in Southern Africa and your mail has a long journey to the States. - Apr 2018
