Receiving parcels & letters

When insufficient postage is applied at the time of posting, Jersey Post will apply a surcharge that covers the cost of putting the item through the postal system.

If a surcharge is applied, it is the mail recipient who pays the postage shortfall at the point of delivery, if they wish to receive the item.
