FAQ

ABOUT POSTADRESSEN.DK

Postadressen.dk is a private mail handling service that provides a Danish service address for receiving, scanning, and digitally delivering ordinary physical mail.

The service is intended for private individuals who want digital access to their physical mail, for example when staying abroad, during temporary absence from Denmark, or when there is a need for centralized digital mail handling.

Postadressen.dk functions solely as a service address and cannot be used as a residential address, civil registration address, or for any form of public registration. The service does not include Digital Post from public authorities, parcels, or physical mail forwarding.

LEGALITY & ADRESS

Is it legal to use Postadressen.dk as a mailing address for physical mail?

Yes. The address is used as a service address for receiving private physical mail and is fully legal for this purpose. The address may only be used for receiving physical mail and not as a residential address.


Do I need to change my civil registration address?

No. You do not need to change your civil registration address (CPR). Postadressen.dk is solely a mailing address and must not be used for CPR relocation or residential registration.


Which address should I use?

You will receive your personal mailing address in the welcome email after signing up, for example:

[Your name]
Postadressen.dk
[The address assigned to you]

It is important that the address is used exactly as stated in the welcome email.


Do you receive Digital Post from public authorities?

No. Postadressen.dk handles physical mail only. Digital Post from public authorities (e.g. via borger.dk or e-Boks) must still be handled by the customer.


Who should I provide my new address to?

You must update your address yourself with private senders from whom you wish to receive physical mail, such as family, friends, associations, organizations, and subscriptions.


What types of mail do you not handle?

Postadressen.dk handles ordinary physical mail only. Parcels, goods, and other shipments containing items are not accepted and will be rejected or returned. Mail that requires a signature, identification, or special receipt (e.g. registered mail) is not handled and may be rejected or returned.


Can my assigned address change?

Yes. The assigned service address may, in special cases, be changed for operational or capacity reasons, including relocation.

In such cases, at least 14 days' notice will generally be provided. The customer is always responsible for updating the address with all relevant senders.

Postadressen.dk does not provide automatic forwarding, redirection, or address updates on behalf of the customer.

RESPONSIBILITY & DEADLINES

Failure by the customer to respond – including failure to monitor digital mail – cannot be claimed as liability against Postadressen.dk.

If unusually extensive or voluminous mail is received, we reserve the right to reject scanning, contact you to arrange a separate agreement, or destroy or return the shipment.

Mail is scanned manually and generally on an ongoing basis on weekdays. Processing times may vary depending on volume and capacity.
