I have checked with the Post in Phnom Penh, Cambodia and they are in the process figuring out where TRISTAN DA CUNHA is? I will keep everyone advised!

I gave it another run at the main post office in Phenom Penh and my contribution was routed through the UK? They said it would take 4 weeks?

If your post office does not send to Tristan da Cunha,

ask if they send to South Africa and address it this way:

No need to mark it "air mail" as there is no airport on the island.

Travel is from Cape Town via ship:

"Tristan da Cunha Ferries operates a ferry from Cape Town to Tristan da Cunha once a week. Tickets cost €467 and the journey takes 6 days" .

It is an absolutely Covid free place, not one case in three years.

This is the info that the Tristan Da Cunha post office has on its website: Postmistress, Post Office, Tristan da Cunha, TDCU 1ZZ, South Atlantic Ocean, (Via Cape Town, South Africa). Mail is delivered by ship and it arrives only a few times a year (so I've read). Not sure what route the mail takes to get there. While it might travel via South Africa, its phone number is (44) 0203 014 5103. That (44), the country code, is the same as what is used in the United Kingdom. A postal code website also notes this: Tristan da Cunha is part of the British Overseas Territory  Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. Adam B's advice sounds good, if your local post office rejects your contribution.

Hi ThomasB, my post office looked at me sideways when they saw the address but sent it off okay. Tristan da Cunha has a postcode so there's no reason why they shouldn't have accepted it. My only suggestion is you send it to an IUOMA colleague and they send it on for you.

I went to the post yesterday to post my contribution to this very important event, and I was told that it was not possible to post mail art to Tristan da Cunha as it didn't exist in their country database:(

Suggestion?

Yo, below is my contribution to this great endeavor! I believe that this could stand as one of the world's greatest archives of post art on the most extreme art museum in the world. I am honored to submit the work attached.
