IPC publishes UNEX CEN module results
The International Post Corporation has announced that the newly-published IPC UNEX 2017 CEN module results show that 55% of international priority and first-class letter mail within Europe was delivered within two days of posting, 79.5% within three days and 94.2% within five days.
The average delivery time was 2.9 days.
The IPC noted: “For the second year in a row, performance levels are below the European Union’s speed objective of 85% of intra-EU mail delivery (i.e. delivery within three days of posting), and its reliability objective of 97% (i.e. delivery within five days of posting).”
The UNEX results cover a total of 32 countries: the 28 EU Member States together with Iceland, Norway, Serbia and Switzerland. They are based on a total 67,000 test letters sent and received by 1,200 volunteers spread within the measured countries.
