The slovenian and slovakian embassies meet each month to exchange wrongly addressed mail.
A package sent to me, living in austria, europe, got sent through australia, australia.
Mail errors are common.
- taejo 5y agoIt seems strange to me that this is done through diplomatic channels rather than the regular international mail routes between the two countries. Unless you mean the mail for the Slovenian and Slovakian embassies in third countries. But as another example, Korea Post, the South Korean postal service, recommends including "Seoul" in all addresses from outside the country, even if it's going to a different city, to increase the chances of it going to the right Korea.
- Akronymus 5y agoMail for the embassies afaik. and because it is a lot of pretty important mail, they deem it safer to personally exchange it.
- taejo 5y agoAh that makes sense. Thanks for answering. I was thinking the Slovenian embassy in Slovakia takes all the misaddressed/misrouted mail for the whole country and vice versa.
