The postage rate for standard letter mail will increase by 20 cents to 51 cents from Oct 9 and the impact will be felt mostly by corporates rather than households as they account for 80 per cent of all letter mail sent in Singapore. While the overall business of SingPost remains profitable in Financial Year 2022, more
than 90 per cent of these profits were attributable to its logistics business and overseas investments. SingPost’s core business in Singapore is post and parcel, which incurred operating losses of S$16 million. This is due to the global decline in letter mail, as well as intense competition from logistics companies and e-commerce players growing their own parcel delivery capabilities. As a result, letter delivery costs have risen considerably.
