vastaanottajakortit

Vastaanottajakortit, often translated as recipient cards or receiver cards, are a Finnish postal innovation designed to simplify the process of collecting parcels. When a parcel is too large to fit in a standard mailbox or requires a signature, the postal service will leave a vastaanottajakortti in the recipient's mailbox. This card serves as a notification that a package is waiting for them at a designated pick-up point, typically a post office or a postal outlet.

The card contains essential information such as the parcel's tracking number, the recipient's name and address, and the location and opening hours of the pick-up point. The recipient presents this card, along with a valid form of identification, to collect their parcel. This system helps manage the volume of undelivered items at post offices and ensures that valuable or signature-required packages are handed over securely. Vastaanottajakortit have been a common sight in Finnish mailboxes for many years, streamlining the last mile of delivery for both senders and receivers.
