International change for registered letters
From January 1, 2026, registered letters sent to Denmark and the rest of the world may only contain documents.
This means that physical objects and goods may no longer be sent as registered letters to Denmark or abroad. These shipments must instead be sent as ordinary letters or parcels.
There are no changes for shipments within Greenland. Here, physical objects and goods can still be sent in registered letters.
If you have any questions about the change, you are welcome to contact us at post@tusass.gl
New Customs Restrictions on Postal Mail to the USA and Puerto Rico
From August 29, 2025, the USA will introduce new rules affecting international postal shipments.
✅ You can send:
-
Documents (no changes)
-
Letters/parcels with gifts from private individuals under 100 USD
-
Parcels with a value over 800 USD (customs clearance as usual)
❌ You can not send:
-
Letters and parcels from private individuals with a value between USD 100–800.
-
Letters and parcels from companies with a value below USD 800
Tusass is working together with PostNord to find a solution so that normal mail exchange can be resumed for all postal shipments.
On August 23, 2025, will be the last time we send mail from Nuuk via Denmark to the USA under the current regulations.
PostNord has indicated that any shipments failing to meet these requirements will be returned to Greenland.
If you have any questions, you can contact us at post@tusass.gl.
