Adjust the principal postage rates
(Starting from 26 September 2022)

Hongkong Post announced that the principal postage rates will be adjusted with effect from September 26, 2022.

Hongkong Post is committed to providing reliable and efficient postal services to the public at reasonable prices. However, there is a need to periodically adjust postage rates in order to offset escalating operating costs, in particular increases in major cost components such as conveyance costs and terminal dues payments.

The principal postage adjustments of the basic tier will be as follows:

• local letters weighing 30 grams or less will be adjusted from the existing postage of $2.0 to $2.2;
• letters by air mail weighing 20 grams or less to the Mainland and Taiwan will be adjusted from the existing postage of $3.4 to $3.7, while those to other places will be adjusted from $3.7 - $5.0 to $4.0 - $5.5; and
• letters by surface mail weighing 20 grams or less to the Mainland, Macao and Taiwan will be adjusted from the existing postage of $2.6 to $2.8, while those to other places will be adjusted from $3.2 - $4.8 to $3.5 - $5.3.
