General Information
< Table of contents
Franking methods
In this booklet you will find information on the products,

services and rates of PostNL.
You can frank your postal items in the following ways:

With stamps. If you use our stamps with a number,
you no longer have to put on additional stamps.
With prepaid stamps. If you want to frank your domestic
parcel, you can do so with a prepaid parcel stamp. You
can also use a prepaid stamp for your domestic registered
postal item. For more information, visit the MijnPost Shop
at postnl.nl/mijnpost or go to postkantoor.nl.
With our digital stamp. Simply print your stamp yourself
using a DYMO LabelWriter and you will always have the
correct postage for your letters, parcels and letterbox
mail. For more information, visit digitalepostzegel.nl.
With our Online Shipping Service. Using your own
computer and printer you can prepare letters and
letterbox packets for dispatch with Track & Trace
within the Netherlands online. For more information,
go to onlineverzendservice.nl.
With a NetSet franking machine. With this machine you
can easily frank small and large numbers of mail items.
In most cases you pay a lower rate than the normal
stamp rate.
Weight categories
The rates for single item mail are per item and always apply
up to the highest weight stated for the relevant category.
Up to 50 grams therefore means that an item may not
weigh more than 50 grams.
VAT
In terms of the Postal Act, 2009, PostNL is obliged to offer
certain products and services. These products and services
are listed on pages 5, 6, 7 and 21 and are exempt from VAT
unless they are shown in grey. In the latter case the rates
include VAT. VAT is charged on our other products and
services.
Registered (for parcels): for these rates, the increased
liability of 1.65 is exempt from VAT.
Insured Service (for parcels): for these rates,
the increased liability of 7.50 is exempt from VAT.
Payment Service (for letters and parcels): for these rates,
the increased liability of 1.65 and the Payment Service
surcharge of 8.30 are exempt from VAT.
Letters and parcels franked with the NetSet franking
machine are exempt from VAT. If you have opted for a
contract with annual volume discount, VAT is charged
on all domestic products included in that contract.
All single mail item products and services are available

from the PostNL postal outlets. So you can also have your
letter, letterbox item or parcel franked by an employee at
a postal outlet.

Addressing for International items
On mail items to cross border destinations the country of
destination must always be written out in full, either in
Dutch or English, on the bottom address line. Make sure you
write the name of the country, as well as the name of the
town, in capital letters. Other address details, such as the
name of the addressee and the street, may be written in the
language of the country of destination. If a country makes
use of zip codes, you must state them in the address. An
item destined for a foreign country must also state the
address of the sender in the Netherlands.
Transit time for International mail
When mail is sent abroad, the transit time depends on
the country of destination. Single item mail for cross border
destinations is sent with the Priority Service. Priority mail
must be franked with a priority stamp, a priority sticker or a
Priority image pre-printed on the item. These images can
be found at postnl.nl. Stickers are freely available at
PostNL outlets or can be ordered in the MijnPost Shop at
postnl.nl/mijnpost or via postkantoor.nl.
Stamps Internationaal already include the Priority image.
If you are using this type of stamp, there is no need to add
any additional Priority image yourself.
A priority indication is always required and ensures that
your mail receives priority treatment abroad as well.
You will find the transit time per country in Annexes 2
and 3 on pages 27 and 28.
Goods and customs
For the delivery of goods outside the European Union,
customs forms must be used. Please go to postnl.nl for
the necessary customs forms or ask for them at a PostNL
outlet. Clearance by customs in the country of destination
may result in your mail item being delayed.

Bulk mail
General information
How does bulk mail work?

General
What is a consignment?
Bulk refers to a consignment of postal items from one
domestic sender, which is handed over to PostNL for
dispatch at the same time and at the same location, to be
delivered with the same delivery speed accepted at a rate
per item that differs from the single item rate. In order to
be classified as Small, Large and Special formats, the items
in a consignment must have the same look and size. With
the exception of Mixed bulk mail, consignments of bulk
mail may not exceed the weight category for the product
in question. Within their weight category, the items may
vary (e.g. 0-20 grams). Consignments must be handed in
sorted into the categories Small, Large or Special.
A Mixed consignment may consist of items in the Small,
Large and Special sizes. International consignments
may also contain packets. The latter may differ in size,
packaging, contents and look and may weigh up to
2 kg per item.
< Table of contents
Franking
Franking with PostNL Port Betaald (postage paid)
Postal items in a consignment must be franked with the
standard indication PostNL Port Betaald. For foreign
countries this is PostNL Port Betaald/Port Pay Pays-Bas
or PostNL Port Betaald/Postage Paid The Netherlands.
You may find images at postnl.nl/downloads. If you still
have envelopes with the outdated TNT Post Port
Betaald, you may still use them.
Franking with a franking machine
Domestic bulk mail in the categories Small, Large or
Special can be franked with a franking machine. If you
hand in these items as bulk mail at one of our Business
locations and your consignment meets all the conditions
set by PostNL, you may qualify for the bulk mail rate.
Weight categories
The rates for bulk mail are applied per item, and in every
weight category the item weight is always up to and
including the highest weight stated. For example, in the
category 40 to 50 grams no item may weigh more than
50 grams.
Addressing for international items
On mail items to cross border destinations the country of
destination must always be written out in full, either in
Dutch or English, on the bottom address line. Make sure
you write the name of the country, as well as the name of
the town, in capital letters. Other address details, such as
name of the addressee and streetname, may be written
in the language of the country of destination.
If a country makes use of zip codes, you must include
them in the address. Items with a destination outside the
Netherlands must also state the address of the sender
in the Netherlands.

General Information
Preparing mail
Would you like to hand over a consignment? Then please
take note of the following:
Design
For consignments of bulk mail consisting of 2,500 items or
more that fall within the categories of Small, Large and
Special, the design of your mail is subject to the terms and
conditions described in our brochure Conditions for
designing mail items (latest version). For consignments
of Small, Medium or Special bulk mail consisting of fewer
than 2,500 items, this brochure is provided for advisory
purposes only.
Sorting consignments
Bulk mail in the categories Special and Periodicals can be
handed in sorted from 5,000 items upward. You then
qualify for a lower rate. Sorting becomes easier with the
sorting program e-Sort, which you can download free of
charge via postnl.nl/e-sort. For more information about
sorting methods, visit post.nl or contact our Business
Service on 088 868 68 68.
Tender via MijnPost
MijnPost is the digital customer environment of PostNL.
With MijnPost you can arrange your postal affairs quickly
and effectively, like for instance the administrative
preparation of your bulk mail consignments. First you
tender a consignment in MijnPost. Then you can choose
for:
a yellow Sealbag;
a postal bag with a yellow tie-wrap;
a P1700 order form.
The yellow Sealbags and the tie-wraps are featured with a
barcode. When you prepack your consignment in a yellow
Sealbag or in a postal bag with a yellow tie-wrap, you will
have to mention the barcode alongside the order itself in
MijnPost.
When you choose to use a P1700 order form, you will have
to attach this form to the consignment.
< Table of contents
MijnPost, and for each invoicing period you will receive a

management report. With this report you can allocate the
products and services you have purchased to your own
cost centres. In short, MijnPost enables you to take care
of the financial administration of all your postal affairs.
You can sign up for MijnPost at postnl.nl/mijnpost.
Note
We will charge an admin fee of 3.00 for manually
completed order forms.
Pre-alert
If you have large consignments, please inform us in
advance with regard to the size and contents of the
consignment, so that we may offer you the appropriate
level of service. Notifying in advance is easy with MijnPost.

Minimum consignment size or minimum order amount

Bulk mail is subject to a minimum consignment size or a
minimum order amount. This is specified in the relevant
rates. Would you like to hand in a consignment with fewer
items than the smallest defined consignment size? Then
you may either pay the minimum order amount, or you
may pay for the missing number of postal items at the bulk
order rate.

order confirmation in MijnPost the day after you have
handed in a consignment at our business location. This
way you will always have the latest information on your
order at hand. You will also receive your invoices via

Delivery and Collection Service

PostNL makes a distinction between urban/
industrial areas and rural areas. The subscription
rate is determined on the basis of the type of area
the Collection or Delivery address is situated in. The
daily rate that applies to your situation can be found
on following websites postnl.nl/brengservice and
postnl.nl/haalservice.
The daily rate for the Delivery and Collection Service
consists of:
- A subscription component which depends on the
area (either urban/industrial or rural) of the
delivery address, the chosen service window opted
number of days a week.
- A volume component that depends on the amount
of rolling bins or bags a day.
We invoice the actual number of working days that
matches your contract, excepting nationally
recognised holidays, on a monthly basis. The
amount on your invoice may therefore vary. It is also
possible to order a single, one-off collection of your
mail.
Collection: paying per parcel
It is also possible to contract a Collection service in
which you pay per separate parcel. You qualify for
this arrangement when you send an average of
maximum 25 parcels a day. Besides that you can
enclose up to 200 letters.
Characteristics of this Collection service are:
- Timeslots of either 1 hour, 2 hours or throughout
the day.
- No usage of postal bags or roll containers.
- You can find extra information online at postnl.nl/
haalservice.
Business Safekeeping Service
For keeping mail addressed to your business and
sent by PostNL.
The mail we keep is delivered to you on the first
delivery day after the safekeeping period.
Note: Monday is not a delivery day
You can opt for one continuous period or,
choose a subscription, for a maximum of 7 separate
periods, up to a maximum duration of 14 weeks.
Safekeeping Service can not be contracted for
registered items and items sent with Insured Service.
You can apply online up to 5 working days before the
desired start date via postnl.nl/bewaarservice.
Business Forwarding Service
For forwarding mail to another national or
international postal address.
Handy when your business is temporarily closed,
when you are moving or when you receive mail at
several addresses.
For mail sent to a business address or P.O. box.
For one period, multiple periods (max. 7 periods,
total duration 14 weeks) or continuous (can be
extended annually).
Not applicable to parcels, items weighing more than
2kg, registered letters abroad, unaddressed mail and
mail delivered by other delivery services or couriers.

Transit time
The tables on this page list a number of frequent foreign
destinations and the applicable indicative transit times.
The transit time is the number of working days a mail item is in
transit before reaching its destination.
The transit time depends on the country of destination, and for
some bulk mail products on the service window selected as well.
Local holidays may also affect the transit time.
The transit time of registered letters or letters sent using the
Insured Service may, depending on the country, differ from the
number of working days stated in the table. On average, this type of
mail takes one working day longer than Priority mail, because it is
processed through an additionally secured channel.
Clearance by customs in the country of destination may result in
your mail item being delayed.
Within Europe, the transit time of mail items using Standard Service
is on average two working days longer than that of items sent by
Priority Service. For countries outside of Europe, this transit time is
on average four working days longer.
The transit time given for the Speed Service refers to capital cities
and the main business centres in the relevant countries. For
outlying areas additional transit time must be allowed. At present it
is not possible to predict a precise transit time.
