About PTT
PTT, which is short for Posta ve Telgraf Teskilati, is the national postal operator of Turkey, with a vast history of more than 180 years. Founded in 1840 as Ministry of Post, PTT offers postal, logistics and banking services to individuals and businesses. Headquartered at Ankara, the company, internationally known as Turkish Post, has postal branches spread across the country. The branch locator online will help locate an outlet by city, address or pin code. A member of the Universal Postal Union (UPU), other associate companies include PTT AVM, PTT Kargo, PTT Bank, PTT Cell and PTT Kep.
Speaking of the postal services, PTT allows you to send letters and documents across the country through standard or EMS (registered). If sending documents or letters, the weight cannot exceed more than 2kg. Choose EMS courier for sending important parcels. Letters and documents for destinations outside the country as well cannot exceed weight of 2kg. You can calculate the shipping charges along with timeframe with the tools available online. Simply choose the destination, along with item type and weight to get the rates. If your post is already enroute, track the same online with the reference number.
Besides documents, PTT offers cargo services for domestic and international locations. Through cargo you can send parcels with weight up to 30kg. The package can be sent to an address or to nearest PTT office where it can be collected. For international parcels, you have services for surface as well as air. You can send parcels to more than 120 countries. In an event where the parcel is damaged or missing, you can claim compensation as well. The terms and process for same are published online.

My driving license was to be delivered. I got call from the delivery person. He confirmed my address but did not deliver. There are so many complaints regarding PTT delivery service and system. I hope the Government takes note of these complaints so that the PTT reviews its standards.
On Nov 16, 2022, our daughter sent a 10 kg postal package parcel from Istanbul, Turkey to the United States, Washington DC. The post office said the package would be received within 10 days. Now after three months the package has not been received on her address in the United States.
I ordered from Turkey, parcel sent 22nd November, still not received, tracking says “in transit”. Seller won’t contact the postal company and is reluctant to help, keeps telling me to “wait”. Not sure what else to do!
Item was posted 28days ago 2/11:2022 tracking hasn’t been updated for 26days. (4/11/2022), still waiting on my item and had zero communication…. No idea when it’s coming or if it’s coming!
My package says it is waiting for the recipient to retrieve it – yet I have not been provided a location where to pick it up from here in Perth! I have been to my local post office and courier service and neither of them have heard of PTT posta! I am worried my parcel is lost and I have been scammed! Help!
Why is the package or parcel location not being updated.it just says the parcel forwarded to destination county and it’s been in transit for 30 days.
I have a tracking number but is says it doesn’t recognise the number I have no idea what to do and find it difficult to find a number to call.
It has been over a month now and haven’t received my package. The package was sent from Germany and I’m living in north Cyprus. It’s taking too long.
When tracking my order, it says that it’s waiting in the post office or something like that, what does that mean? won’t they deliver it to my address?
When tracking my package it says embezzlement taken. What am I supposed to do next to get my package. It has been in transit for 12 days and since 19th it’s been embezzlement taken.
