Sending via Royal Mail from the Republic

    I'm trying to post something to Guernsey. An Post won't send there, but Royal Mail will. Is there a way to send a package by Royal Mail with a pre-paid Royal Mail label via An Post?

    I thought about sending it to a post office in the North with a note to remove the outer packaging with Irish postage and send it on with the pre-paid label. I don't mind paying two lots of postage, but I'm worried that the post office staff might refuse it for some reason.

    I assume you are sending a parcel.
    Did you try courier services, instant price online, and next day collection?

    Do you know of any that send from Ireland to Guernsey? Parcel2Go doesn't have any.

    An post send to Guernsey unless it's a prohibited item such as something with a battery. Royal mail would have the same restrictions.
