๐ Postal Guidelines: China to Papua New Guinea
Postal items dispatched from Mainland China to Papua New Guinea do not require a Papua New Guinea postal code for international transit.
The destination country (Papua New Guinea) must be clearly indicated in Chinese characters on the mail item. The complete destination address, including city and detailed street address, must also be provided in Chinese.
To facilitate final delivery within Papua New Guinea, the complete delivery address must be legibly written in the local language (English or local language).
Including the correct local Papua New Guinea postal code is strongly recommended. This significantly enhances sorting efficiency at Papua New Guinea Post and optimizes last-mile delivery by postal carriers.
