“No Circular Mail” Opt-out Sticker Scheme and Exemptions |
|
(1) Unaddressed circulars will not be delivered to any delivery point labelled with a “No Circular Mail” sticker. |
(2) Unaddressed circulars will still be delivered to all delivery points if they are posted by government and related organizations, Legislative Councillors/District Councillors, election candidates, and charitable institutions or trusts of a public character which are exempt from tax under Section 88 of Inland Revenue Ordinance. The mentioned senders may choose to deliver their circulars to all delivery points or to delivery points that do not have the “No Circular Mail” sticker. If all delivery points are chosen, the word “EXEMPTED*” should be printed beneath the indicia in the top right corner of the circulars, and the remark below should also be included at the bottom of the same face (or overleaf):“* This mail is eligible for exemption from “No Circular Mail” Opt-out Sticker Scheme.” |
(3) For those charitable institutions choosing to deliver their circulars to all delivery points, they are required to produce a copy of the Tax Exemption Certificate issued by Inland Revenue Department under Section 88 of Inland Revenue Ordinance when submitting a posting application. |
(4) Final decisions on all exemptions are subject to the discretion of the Postmaster General. |
