231.1 Description

Priority Mail International is considered a parcel stream for mail exchange purposes, with the exception of the flat-rate envelope and the small flat-rate box.

231.2 Eligibility

Written correspondence having the nature of current and personal correspondence is not permitted generally in Priority Mail International items but may be sent in the Priority Mail International flat-rate envelope or small flat-rate box.

231.3 Mail Sealed Against Inspection
