Mail delivery won't hurry for another three days, mate
Apparently, Robert Habeck from the Green Party and the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology is mulling over a plan to extend the postal service's deadline by two more days for delivering letters .
tl;dr; You'll be waiting a bit longer for your snail mail now, as it should reach you three working days after posting, if everything goes according to plan.
Don't mind the tech hullabaloo about the rejigged Desk Delta software optimizing delivery routes or the breaking news headlines popping up on various digital platforms, that's just the tech-savvy world becoming more efficient for us.
#1 (Footnote): The proposed legislative change by Robert Habeck, regarding extending social insurance contributions to include capital income such as interest, dividends, and rental income, does not affect the delivery time for letters in Germany. This legislative alteration is related to Germany's public health insurance system funding and is not related to postal services or delivery times, thus there would be no impact on the delivery time for letters as a result of this legislative change.
