A note about USPS M-Bag Options:

Effective January 22, 2023, the United States Postal Service (USPS) eliminated the option to process M-Bags through our “International Priority Airmail (IPA)” and “International Surface Air Lift (ISAL)” services for discounted rates. 

The good news is that we can offer highly discounted rates through our “Priority Mail Express International (PMEI)” and “Priority Mail International (PMI)” services that will only add about 8-10% (on average) and offer full tracking with limited insurance.

International Mail Service now offers alternative services that include competitive pricing with tracking to most countries.  The most popular is the “GlobalPost Reseller Service” which allows customers of all sizes to access highly discounted IMS contract rates through Stamps.com (and their family of shipping software options).  Once the rates are activated in your software you can print the labels and transport (or ship) the packages to Shipping Centers located in Los Angeles, Chicago, or New Jersey.  Costs are charged at the point of label printing from your prefunded account.  

Available service options include:

Standard
