How to Obtain a Post Office Box In Rwanda?

Have you ever thought of having a postal address to your new location? Post office box is great for people who move constantly. If you’ve ever relocated, you know the pain you go through – changing mailing addresses for bills, bank statements, updating personal information, etc. It’s very easy to miss updating an important service. Next thing you know, you end up with identity theft because someone happened to get his hands on your personal mail. A P.O. Box will reduce this problem by cutting down the frequency required to change your mailing address every time you move.

Here is the thing, you don’t NEED a Post office box.  Paper mail is really not a thing here.  You get a bill, you get a text message or an email.  Many services are prepaid.  Even the electric is worked through a text messaging or Momo system.  So, there isn’t a paper system.  Even for delivery…things can come right to your doorstep.  Yet, some people get a P.O. Box just to make things easier….so here is how you can make it happen.
