In order to provide more efficient customer service and faster processing of postal services, additional staff has been brought on to ensure the delivery of items without delivery charges and fast pick-up counters have been set up in the busiest post offices in Riga, Pierīga (Greater Riga area), Valmiera and Daugavpils. The fast pick-up counters are operating for two hours every workday during the busiest period of servicing the customers. Fast pick-up counters have now been set up in a total of 25 post offices in Riga, Pierīga, Valmiera and Daugavpils.
Taking into account the increase in the amount of inbound international items, fast pick-up counters have been set up in the most frequently visited post offices in Riga, Pierīga, Valmiera and Daugavpils in order to deliver the items free of delivery charges every workday. Using the services of the fast pick-up counters, the customers can receive registered letters, small packets and parcels not requiring the payment of any customs duties or cash-on-delivery charges.
Along with the development of e-commerce, the number of inbound international items at Latvijas Pasts accounted for 7.5 million units in 2015, exceeding the volume of 2014 by 1.3 million units. The upwards trend of the mentioned items is also observed in 2016.
