Russian Post (Почта России) is the national postal operator, with roots in medieval courier routes and imperial post roads. The modern company was reorganized in 2002 and now runs tens of thousands of branches across urban and rural Russia, handling letters, parcels, EMS, and financial services. Understanding local delivery times helps you plan pickups, schedule courier options, and avoid missed notices—especially during peak seasons and in remote regions.
