8. Landscape postmark
the post office where the scenic spot is located uses the postal daily stamp engraved with the local landscape pattern, which not only has the function of common daily stamp to cancel stamps, but also has the function of publicity. Of course, if you subdivide it, you can specify more postmark categories. However, no matter how you define it, the above categories are recognized.

& postcard delivery problem: at present, there are postcards of various specifications and Post Office standard postcards on the market. Specifications are: 165 × 102 (mm) and 148 × 100 (mm). Some friends often ask, can postcards smaller than this standard size be mailed? The answer is: as long as you stick enough stamps, post box can be mailed. (Mail to the post office counter may not be accepted, it is recommended to post box)
On this issue, the reporter of Hangzhou Qianjiang Evening News specially consulted the staff of the marketing department of Hangzhou post office replied that postcards and envelopes are now sorted by machines. Non-standard postcards and envelopes are sorted manually, which will be slightly slower than machine sorting. It is OK to send them. (Non-standard size postcards should be written in standard format, which is convenient for Post Office sorters to sort )
& many friends bought personalized envelopes (commonly known as non-Post Office supervised envelopes) and sent them to the post office counter for mail or registration. They are often told that they cannot be used. It is recommended to buy envelopes sold by the post office for mail.
In fact, there is a misunderstanding here. Now the post office mail sorting basically uses mail sorting machine, and envelopes with poor paper are easy to be damaged, however, non-standard envelopes will be "eliminated" when sorting because the machine cannot recognize them ", can only rely on manual sorting, resulting in delivery time delay, for appeal reasons, Post Office staff usually recommend buying post Office supervised envelopes are used, but for good quality non-Post Office supervised standard size envelopes (with stamp box and zip code box), stick enough stamps to post box, post office sorting machine can be sorted normally and normally sent.
Some personalized envelopes sold in our store can be mailed, the paper quality, size (175 * 125mm) and format all meet the mailing requirements. After testing, post box can be mailed normally after writing in normal format and sticking enough stamps. (It is not allowed to go to the post office counter post office and send registered letters. For more information, see above)
