| Prohibited and Restricted Postal Items | Please refer to the "Post Office Guide" for details of prohibited and restricted items for respective destinations. It is the sender's responsibility to enquire into the import and export regulations (e.g. prohibitions, restrictions including quarantine, pharmaceutical restrictions, etc.) and the documents required (e.g. commercial invoice, certificate of origin, health certificate, license, authorisation for goods subject to quarantine [plant, animal, food products, etc.]) in the destinations. If Hongkong Post finds that the mail items belong to prohibited items, the mail items will be returned to the sender and the paid postage fee will not be refunded. Under this situation, the sender must bear the responsibility for the losses incurred by non-compliance with relevant posting requirements. |

In the case of damage or loss to a mail item, we will compensate you in accordance with the Universal Postal Convention and its Regulations. Compensation varies according to the weight of the parcel. However, the actual compensation of the content of an uninsured parcel paid will not exceed the value shown in the purchase invoice (or in the case of documents, the replacement cost) of the articles lost or the amount of damage sustained and no compensation is paid for indirect loss or loss of profits. You may choose to purchase optional insurance for higher valued items.
^For certain destinations, service is currently suspended or will not provide written proof of delivery.
