Waiting weeks for German letters to cross the ocean — or paying international postage for junk mail — is the old way. The smart setup: your mail arrives at a Berlin address, every letter is scanned within 24 hours so you read it the same day anywhere in the world, and only the originals you actually need get forwarded.
We forward original letters and parcels to any address worldwide: United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, EU countries, and beyond. You pay €1.50 per letter plus actual postage. Since you've already read the scan, you only ship documents that truly need to travel — typically a fraction of your mail.
A Deutsche Post Nachsendeauftrag ships every single letter abroad: weeks of transit, international fees, and deadline risk — German law often counts a letter as delivered when it reaches a German mailbox, not when you finally read it in Sydney. Scan-first means you know the contents within 24 hours, deadlines are auto-detected, and German letters are translated to English automatically.
Sign up and get your Berlin address. Then either point a Deutsche Post forwarding order (Nachsendeauftrag) from your old German address at it, or give the address directly to your banks, insurers, and the tax office. Both take minutes and work from abroad.
German shops that won't ship internationally? Order to your Berlin address — we receive parcels from DHL, Hermes, DPD, UPS, and GLS and forward them to you, with customs forms prepared from your item details.
€1.50 per letter plus actual Deutsche Post international postage. Parcels: actual shipping plus a handling fee.
