December is traditionally the busiest time of the year for Latvijas Pasts, as in addition to the usual postal services there is a significantly larger number of press subscriptions for the next year and greetings and parcels sent. Because of that, Latvijas Pasts is extending the working time of post offices in Riga and other largest cities by one hour in the last month of the year. The alteration of working hours does not apply to post offices located in shopping malls and in establishments that set their own working hours.

Exact working hours of all Latvijas Pasts post offices starting from December 1 can be found at www.pasts.lv, by calling 67008001 or 27008001, as well as on delivery slips delivered to customers. Latvijas Pasts will announce the changes of working hours during the holidays in December.

Latvijas Pasts urges customers to send their holiday greetings and other mail at the end of the year in a timely manner, as December is the busiest period for post offices throughout the world.
