Families across the United Kingdom are being given a timely reminder by the Royal Mail to ensure their children's festive wishes reach the North Pole in time. The postal service has issued a final call for its popular Santa Mail initiative, stressing a crucial cut-off date for sending letters to Father Christmas.
Don't Miss the Final Posting Date
The absolute last day to post a letter to Santa Claus and guarantee a reply is Wednesday, 10 December 2025. Royal Mail officials are encouraging parents and guardians to act promptly to avoid disappointment, ensuring the cherished tradition of receiving a personalised response from Santa remains intact for youngsters.
How to Address Your Letter to the North Pole
To make certain the post finds its way to Santa's workshop, the envelope must be correctly addressed. The official address supplied by Royal Mail is: Santa/Father Christmas, Santa's Grotto, Reindeerland, XM4 5HQ. A stamp is required on the letter for its journey to the North Pole, but families do not need to provide return postage for Santa's reply, as this is covered by the service.
Inclusive Formats and Festive Timing
The Royal Mail's commitment to inclusivity means the Santa Mail service is also available in alternative formats for children who need them. Details on how to request letters in Braille or British Sign Language (BSL) can be found on the dedicated Santa Mail page of the Royal Mail website.
The reminder was issued on 4 December, a date fittingly known as Santa's List Day. This is the legendary day when Father Christmas finalises his famous naughty and nice lists, making it the perfect time for children to ensure their Christmas hopes and good behaviour are noted.
This long-running campaign is a cornerstone of the festive season for many families, helping to preserve the magic and excitement of Christmas for children eagerly awaiting a personal message from the man in the big red suit.
