The Dutch postal system works more or less infallibly. Letters and parcels are sent without ado across the whole world. At post offices and post agencies (store-in-store, for example at supermarkets) you can buy stamps and drop off parcels. Any Dutch street is incomplete without the orange or red TNT post-boxes. You can drop off your postcards in the slit labelled overige postcodes (other postcodes). Posting a letter or a postcard within the Netherlands will cost you €0.64, within Europe and for the rest of the world you pay €1.05.
