Mailing

Layout and print

The print must be a dark colour and must stand out clearly against the background colour of the envelope or the card, so that it can be read by a machine. Printable templates for Swiss Post's Combi Response are available for you to use as you wish. The templates comply with international regulations. To ensure that replies can be handled smoothly from all countries, it is vital that you adhere to the stipulated border lengths, dimensions and imprints. In case of doubt, show your layout to your customer consultant before going to press.
