- Letter volumes fell from nearly 1.5 billion in 2000 to about 110 million last year, pushing up stamp prices.
- Private firm DAO will now courier letters collected at shop kiosks to domestic and international addresses.
- PostNord will focus on parcel delivery and plans to cut about 1,500 jobs, roughly a third of its Danish workforce.
- Danish law guarantees that people can still send letters, with the government required to appoint a new provider if private delivery ceases.
