China Post, officially theChina Post Group Corporation,[4] is the national postal service corporation of thePeople's Republic of China. It is incorporated as astate-owned enterprise.
China Post shares its office with the sub-ministry-level government agencyState Post Bureau, which regulates the national postal industry.
The current postal service ofPeople's Republic of China was established in 1949. It replaced theChunghwa Post inmainland China in 1949, as well as in theUniversal Postal Union in 1972. It was formerly administered by the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications.
China Post is directly supervised by theState Post Bureau which has overall responsibility for regulating postal service in China. The State Post Bureau operates under theState Council of China.[5]
After the separation from the State Post Bureau and several re-organization, China Post is currently organized along the following structure.[6]
International services for China Post includeSmall Parcel,Large Package andEMS. The Small parcel and large package of China Post can be tracked if registered. According to transportation methods, it can be divided into three categories: Air Parcel, Surface Air Lift (SAL) Parcel, and Surface Parcel. China Post air mail/parcel is the most popular because it is cheap and convenient. EMS is faster than China Post Mail but more expensive.[7]
The average delivery speed depends on the type of service and the trade and communication links with the destination country of the cargo or parcel. For instance, the delivery time for cargo from China to the USA, regardless of the service type, is approximately 19 days.[8]
