We know that tourism is important and that's why we offer a wide range of products designed for this sector, to accompany tourists on their travels and help then share their experience with anyone they wish to, wherever they are.
With our Tourist Agents service, Correos offers a vast network of authorised establishments dotted around the country’s main tourist areas. These companies are experts in the tourism sector and have the technical and organisational capacity needed to offer this service with full guarantees.
This promotion and sales activity by our Agents is always backed by Correos by installing post boxes specially designed to cover sector needs, and supplying leaflets, bags and official stamps that promote national tourism at each establishment.
So thanks to our Tourist Agents, tourists can purchase our official stamps and send their letters and tarjetas postales (postcards) anywhere in the world, or easily recover their goods if they left something at their accommodation.
They just have to place their item in one of our post boxes and we’ll make sure it reaches its destination, whether in Spain or abroad.

• They indicate the country of issue: Spain.
