【Quick Guide】Hong Kong Post Circular Mail Format|Avoid Rejections! Sizes, Cover Design & Mailing Rules Explained

If your business is planning to send out bulk flyers, promotional letters, or announcement mailers through the Hong kong Post Circular Service, the first thing you must understand is the official format requirements.

Even a small format error could cause your mail to be rejected — wasting time, money, and delaying your entire street marketing plan. This simple guide will help you master all the key specifications in just a few minutes.

📏 Circular Mail Format Essentials

1️⃣ Size, Weight, Shape & Content Rules

SizeMinimum: 90 × 140 mm | Maximum: 150 × 220 mm
Thickness0.1 mm (approx. 128gsm paper) – 10 mm
WeightUp to 150 g
ShapeSquare or rectangular (custom shapes allowed)
ContentEach circular must contain identical content – no personalized variations per recipient

2️⃣ Delivery Marking Requirements

Each circular mail must include a Delivery Marking printed clearly on the top right corner of the envelope or flyer.

投遞標記

Marking Size:

  • Maximum: 40 mm (W) × 30 mm (H)
  • Minimum: 20 mm (W) × 15 mm (H)
  • This marking allows postal workers to easily identify circular mail during sorting and delivery.

3️⃣ “No Circular Mail” Label Mechanism

Residents or businesses may display an official “No Circular Mail” sticker issued by Hongkong Post on their mailbox or door.

If this label is visible, postal staff must skip that address and are not allowed to deliver any circulars — even if your mail fully meets format standards.

👉 Therefore, always include the “No Circular Mail” disclaimer clearly on your circular design before printing.


📦 What to Do Before Mailing

✅ Step 1: Submit Sample for Approval

All circular designs must be submitted to Hongkong Post (in PDF or printed sample) for review.
Typical approval time: 1–2 working days

✅ Step 2: Prepare Mail Bundles

Circulars must be sorted and bundled according to Hongkong Post’s specifications.
💡 Tip: Pre-book a submission timeslot at the Business Mail Centre to ensure smooth processing.

✅ Step 3: Delivery Method

Unaddressed circulars must be submitted directly to the Business Mail Centre — they cannot be dropped into street mailboxes.
