Post Office Services

Turkish post offices are easily recognizable by the yellow and black ‘PTT’ signs.

As well as selling stamps and telephone tokens and cards, some post offices will exchange cash as well as international postal orders and travellers’ cheques.

Poste restante letters should be addressed ‘postrestant’ to the central post office ‘Merkez Postanesi’ in the town where you wish to collect your post. You will need to produce an ID card or passport when collecting your post.

 

Major post offices are open from 08.00-00.00 Monday to Saturday and from 09.00-19.00 on Sundays.

Smaller offices are open from 8.30-12.30 and from 13.30 – 17.30 and may be closed at weekends.
