IMM Revision: International Merchandise Insurance Limits for Three Countries

The article titled “IMM Revision: Burma (Myanmar), Kiribati, and Sao Tome and Principe Establish Priority Mail Express International Service” in Postal Bulletin 22408
(2-5-15, pages 12-15) noted that each of those three coun­tries will establish an Express Mail Service (EMS) opera­tional exchange agreement with the Postal Service™ effective April 26, 2015.

In that same edition of Postal Bulletin 22408, the article titled “IMM Revision: Changes to Pricing and Mailing Stan­dards for International Shipping Services” (pages 7–12) included a new Exhibit 322.2, “Priority Mail Express International and Priority Mail International Merchandise Insurance Limits,” which will be effective April 26, 2015.

However, the latter article inadvertently excluded from the new Exhibit 322.2 the Priority Mail Express International service merchandise insurance limits for the three coun­tries that will establish such service effective April 26, 2015.

Consequently, in this article, we are revising Exhibit 322.2 to include the information for Burma, Kiribati, and Sao Tome and Principe.
