Post offices situated in large cities generally open from 8am to 2pm on Mondays and Fridays and 8am-11:45am on Saturdays. On special occasions and during the last days of the months there may be shorter hours. It also provides telegram services and registered mail. Make sure to always confirm the correct postage for all postcards or letters to save time. An airmail containing incorrect postage will be sent to the sender via surface mail and can usually take longer than weeks or even months.

The telegram service can be contacted by dialing 186.
