Due to the high volume of post which Royal Mail processes at this time of year, they have provided some deadlines for when you need to have posted items, in order for them to arrive before Christmas.
Dependent upon the country, items which are sent abroad will have various final posting dates. For specific countries, please refer to the Royal Mail website.
Should you need an item to arrive before Christmas and the Royal Mail posting date has passed, there is the option to use either FedEx or DHL services.
