Upcoming Smartmail Marketing and Commercial Mail changes
Posted on December 5, 2024
On January 13, 2025, we will be increasing prices for Smartmail Marketing™ (SM) and Commercial
Mail (COM) services.
The price increases will affect the following products and services:
Smartmail Marketing
• Neighbourhood Mail™
• Personalized Mail™ (PM)
• Postal Code Targeting (PCT)
Commercial Mail
• Publications Mail™
• Business Reply Mail™
(domestic and international)
Additionally, Canada Post has published a proposal with the Government of Canada to increase
its regulated Lettermail™ rates. For stamps purchased in a booklet, coil or pane, which represent
most stamp sales, the company has proposed an increase of 25 cents per stamp, from $0.99
to $1.24.
Non-regulated Transaction Mail rates follow our regulated rates. Pending approval, this
proposed price increase will mean corresponding adjustments averaging about 25% for
non-regulated Transaction Mail products and services.
We understand you need to plan ahead. So, while the proposed rates are still subject to
regulatory approvals, please plan for the new pricing to take effect on January 13, 2025.
If there are any changes to this planned implementation date, we will update this notice.
The pending pricing change would affect the following products and services:
Government-regulated products
• Lettermail (paid with stamps)
• U.S.A. and International
• Letter-post (paid with stamps)
• Domestic Registered Mail™
Non-regulated products
• Lettermail (paid with postage meter/
postal indicia)
• Incentive Lettermail
• Prepaid Registered Mail/Government
Secure Registered Mail
• U.S.A. and International Letter-post
(paid with postage meter/postal indicia)
• International Incentive Letter-post™
• International Registered Mail
We understand this change means additional costs for Canadians and Canadian businesses
that depend on our delivery services, and we don’t take that lightly. However, this rate change
is necessary to better align prices with the rising cost of providing service to all Canadians. We
always work to minimize the impact of price changes, ensuring they are fair and reasonable.
Changes to Options, Surcharges and Fees
Neighbourhood Mail
• The Specified Delivery Start Date surcharge will increase from 1.0¢ to 1.1¢ for Standard items
and 1.5¢ for Oversize items.
• The Transportation fee will increase from 1.2¢ to 1.3¢.
Publication Mail
• The annual fee will increase from $245 to $250.
Registered Mail (pending approval)
• Domestic Registered Mail will increase from $10.50 to $13.15.
• International Registered Mail will increase from $21.00 to $26.25.
Other product changes
No more representative samples (all COM and SMM products and services)
To simplify processes and reduce waste, we no longer require representative sample(s) per
deposit for mailings not enclosed in an envelope, such as cards, self-mailers and magazines.
Items within an envelope or concealed in packaging still re
Neighbourhood Mail customer identification – REMINDER
Canada Post and mail recipients need to be able to identify the senders of their mail items.
A growing number of Neighbourhood Mail mailings are not meeting this requirement.
It is crucial to ensure that mail items meet the customer identification requirement. The
customer’s name must be clearly visible on the outside of the item for easy identification
and contact.
This requirement improves the overall mail experience for consumers.
Important notice: Removing plastic from Neighbourhood Mail
Building a more sustainable future is top of mind for Canadian businesses like yours and
a key focus for our company. For the greener good, we continue to take steps to reduce
waste, improve the sustainability of the mail and do our part to reduce the harmful
effects of plastics in the environment.
As of June 2025, we will no longer be accepting
Neighbourhood Mail packaged in plastic. By making this change, we will eliminate
approximately 200 million pieces of plastic packaging a year – equivalent to approximately
744 metric tons. In the coming months, please watch for additional information about this
upcoming change and what it means for your business.
