DPO. I never used local facilities. - Jun 2020


We use the diplomatic post system. - Oct 2018


We had an APO and the pouch when we were there. We did not have a PO that we could buy stamps from, so be sure to have a USPS.com account. You can buy and print stamps from home and bring in the packages to mail. Mail took about 3 -4 weeks to arrive at post. - Jan 2014
