How to Receive a North Pole Postmark on your 2016 Holiday Cards

Santa Claus - North Pole Post Mark Writing letters to Santa Claus has been a Christmas tradition for children for many years. To brighten the Holiday spirits, many parents and grandparents send kids a “reply” from Santa complete with a postmark from North Pole, where the beloved Christmas icon is known to live and work.

This tradition has been made possible with the United States Post Office offering North Pole postmarks (often called a Cancellation Mark) on holiday mails. This service is free of charge. To receive the North Pole postmark on your holiday cards, follow these USPS instructions:
