The United States Postal Service has suspended mail service to 70 countries due to service complications from the COVID-19 crisis.

Click on THIS LINK for the growing list of countries that are affected.

This suspension will affect all first-class mail (letters) and packages to these countries.

Our office mail packets (Tribune Mail) are sent through FedEx International Mail Service which, for the time being, can ship our packets.

FedEx can get the packets to the host country, but there may be service interruptions once they are “in country”.

There is no indication how long this suspension of service will remain in place. We will continue to monitor the situation and update you when we have more information.
