Hi all

Looking for help on a matter. Want to send a parcel to North Cyprus.
I know you need a post box but anyone know how to do it from the U.K. ?
Also what am I to put on the address

Box ——
Alsancak Post Office
Girne
North Cyprus
Mersin 10
99350

Have I missed anything out as I know in the past often when I send a letter it doesn’t arrive to the intended recipient? Any ideas or Information will be greatly appreciated.

Is the street name and number absolutely necessary if you have a PO Box. Surely the PO will just stick it in the box and leave it there for you to collect.

As I mentioned elsewhere, in Alsancak at least, include your TRNC 'phone number as one line of your address, and the post office chap will send you a text when he receives it!

I'm pretty sure that it would work if your address read: -

Joe Bloggs
O533 830xxxx
Alsancak Post Office
Girne 99350
Mersin 10
TURKEY

I'll try it next time :)
