The cost of sending a standard letter within New Zealand will increase 20 cents from $1 to $1.20, from July 1. NZPost is making this change, along with other changes to postal products following its annual price review. For business customers who use Bulk Mail products there will also be product and price changes. These changes will assist NZPost to manage the significant loss of revenue from fewer letters being sent and still maintain a network of more than 880 postal outlets and 1.98 million delivery points.
