As a privately owned company, what are TNT’s views on universal service obligations?
TNT is attached to the notion of public service. Every Dutch person must be able to enjoy quality mail services at affordable prices. The Dutch government has commissioned TNT to deliver this “universal service.” TNT is bound to offer specific services, such as the daily handling and delivery of all letters not exceeding 50 grams and of single-item parcels weighing up to 10 kilograms. TNT Post is also responsible for the network of orange mailboxes and postal outlets.
