What is Cyprus Post?
Cyprus Post is one of the largest companies in Cyprus and manages all the postal services in the country. Cyprus Post answers only to the Ministry of Transport, Communications, and Public Works of the Cyprus Government. In this way, through laws and regulations, the Cyprus Government can guarantee that the services offered by Cyprus Post are of the best possible quality. This is one of the reasons why Cyprus Post prices are so competitive in today's European market.
According to the law, Cyprus Post has until 2027 the obligation to offer the only postal services in the country. Among the postal services that Cyprus Post offers to both public and private clients, we can include the transport, distribution, sending, and delivery of postal letters, registered letters, documents, parcels, and money orders.
Cyprus Post can also offer additional postal services such as EMS, or the emergency mail service. It is important to note that the Commissioner for the Regulation of Electronic Communications and Postal Services of the Cyprus Government is responsible for regulating, controlling, and monitoring the quality of postal services offered by Cyprus Post. This control is aimed at ensuring and protecting the interests of the customers, in terms of prices, variety of services, and adequate technological renewal of all Cyprus Post services.
Cyprus Post also has the operational capacity to offer other types of services such as eCommerce services. This is to meet the needs of some users and to comply with the rules and legislation of the Cyprus Government and the Ministry of Transport, Communications, and Public Works. This is one of the reasons why the quality of the services offered by the company is so good, both nationally and internationally.
