Dänen stellen nach 400 Jahren die Zustellung von Briefen ein: „Nicht rentabel“

Paywall

Det beskedet kom ju som ett brev på posten.

Så man slog ihop danska och svenska posten, sen införde Danmark obligatorisk elektronisk postlåda och på så sätt fick Danmark 40% av svenska postverksamheten i princip gratis.

Varför måste samhällskritiska funktioner vara LÖNSAMMA? Vissa saker måste få kosta pengar.

”Vi kan inte automatiskt skanna innehållet i era brev så de måste självfallet stoppas.”

Ursäkta aisvaret men det här ger faktiskt relevant kontext till vad som kommer hända i Danmark. Jag frågade om hur det kommer att funka att skicka vykort till någon som bor i Danmark i framtiden.

„That’s a great question, as the postal landscape in Denmark is changing significantly!
PostNord is ending its general letter delivery service in Denmark at the end of 2025. From January 1, 2026, you will need to use alternative services to send a postcard or letter.
Here are the main ways you can send a postcard in Denmark, both leading up to the change and after:
1. Using DAO (The New Letter Carrier)
The courier company Dao is taking over as the primary provider for letter delivery in Denmark. This will be the most straightforward replacement for PostNord’s letter service.
* Buy Postage: You can purchase postage codes or letter marks (like stickers) either through the Dao app or on their website.
* Affix Postage: If you buy a code, you will write it in the top right corner of the postcard instead of using a traditional stamp. If you buy letter marks, you will affix the sticker.
* Drop Off: You must hand your postcard in at a daoSHOP (a drop-off point often located in convenience stores, supermarkets, etc.). They plan to install red post boxes near these locations as well.
* Delivery: Dao delivers letters to all home addresses in Denmark and offers delivery 365 days a year.
2. Digital Postcard Services
A convenient option that bypasses physical stamps, post offices, and mailboxes altogether is using a digital service.
* PostNord App/Service (for now): PostNord has a service called „Postkortet“ (The Postcard) which allows you to take a picture, write a message, and have them print the card and mail it to the recipient for you. This service is relatively easy and may continue, even if the general letter delivery stops, but you should check their current offerings.
* Third-party Apps: International apps like TouchNote and others may also allow you to create a physical postcard from a picture and mail it directly to a Danish address.
3. International Postcards (If sending from Abroad)
If you are sending the postcard to Denmark from another country, the process remains largely the same: you put the appropriate international postage from your home country on the card and drop it in your local mailbox.
* PostNord will continue to handle international mail during a transition period, and other carriers, including DAO, will take over international letter delivery to Denmark from January 1, 2026.
In summary, the key change is that the postcard will need to be franked with a DAO code/mark and dropped off at a daoSHOP instead of a PostNord mailbox after the end of 2025.
Would you like me to look up the nearest daoSHOP to a specific Danish city or address for you?
