DagPost, Dagostinia's Postal Division, is responsible for moving mail throughout the country whether it be completely local, into the USPS or distributing pieces received from it.  Citizens are completely free to deliver mail on their own to other's postal boxes.  In the event that they are unable to, they may employ the use of the postal division through stamps and on-call service.

MSC Codes are listed on the right.  The first 12 stops are government offices.  These codes comply with USPS regulations.  The USPS does not yet recognize Dagostinia as a member of the Universal Postal Union.
