- Outbound mail from Kuwait that weighs less than 13 ounces is
postage free, but inbound mail to Kuwait requires postage.
- We ask deploying soldiers not to pre-mail packages more than
two days before they depart due to the volume of mail entering
Kuwait.
- IMPORTANT REMINDER:
Sending alcohol and pornographic material to the CENTCOM Area of
Responsibility violates U.S. CENTCOM General Order Number 1A and
the U.S. Postal Service Policy pertaining to non-mailable items for
the Middle East geographical area. Sending alcohol,
pornographic materials or other prohibited items through the
military postal system is punishable under the Uniform Code of
Military Justice, Article 92. Customs officials now open
all parcels for inspection, causing a slowdown in the processing
time and the forward movement of the mail.
- If you are unsure an item you intend to send to someone in the
U.S. CENTCOM AOR via the military postal system is authorized,
please contact your local unit commander for further
information.
