IMM Revision: Individual Country Listing for Indonesia

Effective June 13, 2024, the Postal Service™ is revising the Individual Country Listing for Indonesia in Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, International Mail Manual (IMM^®) to revise a prohibition and to add a restriction on certain items mailed to Indonesia.

These revisions are based on a formal request that Pos Indonesia (the designated postal operator of Indonesia) made through the Universal Postal Union via International Bureau Circular (IBC) 57, dated April 8, 2024, and subsequent email correspondences dated May 13, 2024, and May 16, 2024. The IBC noted that the threshold restrictions became effective on March 10, 2024.
