Emirates Post launches Tejari Box to offer enhanced mail service to large companies

The new service, available from June 7, 2004, is aimed at facilitating the collection of the group's mail from a single point. However, separate fees will be charged for each trade licence. There is no limit to the number of companies that can be clubbed under a common P.O. Box number. Emirates Post will provide free e-shaar notification to all subscribers of Tejari Box.

The launch of Tejari Box comes as a response to requests from many large companies whose representatives had to go to different P.O. boxes in various areas to collect mail. Emirates Post is now offering them an option to have the mail collected from a single P.O. Box.

Applicants for the Tejari Box service are required to pay an annual fee for each trade licence, whether commercial, industrial or professional. A maximum of three keys will be given per box. An annual fee is payable for each mail bag, which is mandatory for each box.

Subscribers can also avail of a number of optional services, including the post representative service.

The Tejari Box service is available only to those companies registered under a single owner. The registration form must be completed specifying the parent company's trade licence as well as the supplementary licences. An official representative has to be nominated by the company to collect the mail from the common P.O. Box.
