    It’s almost like a little museum, with postal officer uniforms, metal stamp equipment, and more. They also have historical stamps and philatelic offerings (mostly same day covers and collectible sheets).

    They sell normal stamps, all with the Sultan’s likeness, starting at 10sen.

    It was nearly empty with one employee when I visited on a Monday in March 2019. They have some chairs, so it could be a nice little stop and respite from the heat while you’re enjoying the city!

    My experience with the post office here is less than okay. So far 1/3 of almost every mail that I’ve gotten has stated that it was missent. Also, it takes them a really long time to send mails to people’s places. Furthermore, their operating hours is not at all friendly to people. I have had to rush to the post office to get my parcel on time, since the parcel collection ends at 3:30, because before that time I have work and other priorities to do. An example would be when I have not even received a Priority Mail Express a week after it was stated by their tracking that it was already sent to the respective post office branch. It was much more inconvenient due to how after we receive the mail it would already be over half of the duration given to collect the parcel from them.

    In all honesty, I believe that the Brunei postal service still needs a lot of improvement. For example, the EMS can sometime takes up to 4 to 5 days, which I wouldn’t consider as speedy enough.

    In countries like the US and Malaysia (which are very big countries) for example, they can get the parcels delivered to their destinations within 24 hours, and that’s going over the oceans. Even parcel that is brought to the post office at night in Kuala Lumpur can reach Sarawak by noon the very next day. In the US, when we pay for courier services, they can keep their word. Parcels from the US can reach Brunei in 4 days. If you’re lucky, sometimes even 3 days.

    Now, a very small country like Brunei should by right be able to get parcels delivered within 24 hours. Maximum 2 days. Otherwise customers should be given the “your money back” guarantee. We pay $4 for a slow service? Well, I think that’s just not fair!

    The most useless, slowest, inefficiency and most importantly laziest postal service service in Brunei. Item arrived at post office now being held because ‘could not find address’ doubt that. Called the office over 20 times and not even a single person care to pick up the phone. One case I did not receive my parcel for over 2 months, contact the seller and all the seller refund me only to find out my parcel was in the office in their old-man store room when my family members decide check on their stuff at the post office. Address and contact is always available on the parcel itself yet the officers did not even took the time to even send a SMS to the phone or even email.

    What on earth are they doing there? Are they even doing their job properly? It’d frustrating when most of the delivery service must go through their post office and wait for another thousand years to received the parcels. If i could choose and pay extra for another delivery service than this trash I would’ve chose t in the first place.

    I’ll repeat it again, Brunei postal service is the worst and the most inefficient, slowest and laziest service not only in Brunei but probably in Asia despite being a rich country. What’s the use of money when the people in the office don’t even use their Brain or effort to do their work. Might as well quit and give chance to the younger generation for change. I wish I didn’t have to give a star too in this review.

    Such of waste of time with these kind of people.
