What is considered as a parcel?

Any postal item larger than 250 x 353 mm and/or thicker than 30 mm and/or weighing more than 1 kg will be considered a parcel. However, the Econo Parcel specifications (the old C3) differ:

Maximum thickness: 100mm

Maximum mass: 1kg

Size: 458 mm x 324 mm

Insurance is an optional extra. The client has the option of insuring the ordinary parcel at a rate of two per cent of the declared value up to a maximum of R5 000 with a minimum rate of R2,00 per parcel.
