POST OFFICE

The Post Office® can help with all your travel essentials including travel insurance, foreign currency and our passportcheck and send service. Comprehensive travel insurance is available for single trip or annual multi-trip if you intend to take more than one holiday during the year. A good idea is to take a mix of cash, travellers cheques and plastic on your holiday so that you are prepared for all eventualities. Post Office® Travel Money Card is one of the easiest and safest ways to take your money abroad. For further information on the Travel Money Card or to check the latest exchange rates, calculate how much currency your £Gbp will get you and order currency online, take a look at our Travel money section.

The hosted service is operated from a local community building such as a cafe, village hall or community centre at set times and days each week, with space set aside at these premises for the portable Post Office® computer equipment. This enables customers to access the majority of Post Office® products and services at these locations. The partner service is combined in an existing retail premises and the local partner (such as the shop-owner), provides a slightly reduced range of Post Office® products and services from their premises. More than 80% of the full range of Post Office® products and services are available through the partner service and services are generally available during the same opening hours as the partner’s retail business. This is a service for very small communities and enables customers to order a reduced range of Post Office® products and services over the telephone. The products may either be delivered to a customer’s home by the core subpostmaster or are available for collection by the customer at a local Drop-In Session.
