How can I pick up my parcel at a pickup location?
Balíkovna outlets located at post office
You will need the pickup code contained in the email or text
notification plus the recipient’s name to pick up your parcel at
a post office. Alternatively, you may use your identity document. Most
post offices have a ticket terminal. Press the “Code-based pickup”
button and enter the pickup code. You will be called within a couple
of minutes.
Balíkovna outlets at other locations
You will need the pickup code contained in the email or text notification or in out mobile application and the recipient’s name to pick up your parcel at our partners.
BOX
Enter the pickup code on the display screen of the box. The box will open, you will pick up the parcel and close the box. That’s all. If you have a parcel with COD, use the Track parcel tool or the link contained in the email notification or in our mobile application for prior payment of the COD amount. You will not be able to open the box until the parcel is paid for.
How do I know that a delivery attempt is to be made?
You will be informed about the progress of your addressed parcel delivery by email notifications. A text notification will be sent to you on the day of delivery and our driver will call you before the delivery attempt.
What if I am not at the address on the delivery day?
No problem. Your parcel will be deposited at the nearest Balíkovna located at post office or box. You will just use the pickup code and collect your parcel at a time that suits you.
Can somebody else pick up my parcel?
Certainly. Just make sure to give them the pickup code and the addressee’s name or parcel number. You will find the code in the email or text notification or in our mobile application.
What should I do of my parcel is ready for pickup at an alternative pickup location?
It may happen that the Balíkovna location that you selected is unable to accept the parcel because their capacity is full, for example. To ensure that you can pick -up your parcel as soon as possible, we will automatically store it the nearest post office. You don’t have to worry about anything. We’ll inform you about the alternativete pickup location through text or e-mail notification. Information will also be available in the Track parcels tool or in our mobile application.
Can I extend the time for pickup of my parcel?
Unfortunately not. Smaller Balíkovna locations have a limited storage capacity so we need you to pick up your parcel as soon as possible, within 7 calendar days at the latest. But don’t worry. If you do not have time, just send somebody else with the pickup code to collect your parcel.
How can I pay for the parcel?
Balíkovna outlets located at post office
All post offices accept cash or card payments.
Balíkovna outlets at other locations

you can use a prior online card payment. Just find your parcel in

The COD amount can be paid directly to the driver in cash or by

How can I order delivery from an online store?
- Just select the Balíkovna service from the delivery services offered by the online store. If the service is not available, please send us an email to podporaobchodu@cpost.cz and we will try to arrange for a contract. In the meantime, you can select delivery by Czech Post and use the Online Change of Delivery Instructions tool to have your parcel redirected to a Balíkovna.
What is the difference between boxes, Balíkovna outlets located at post office, and Balíkovna outlets located elsewhere?
A box is a self-service device that allows you to pick up or drop off your parcel at any time and without waiting.
Balíkovna outlets located at places other than post offices are run by our partners. You can find them at grocery, stationery, newsagent’s shops or drugstores. Also, at certain SAZKA betting shops.
Balíkovna outlets located at post offices are dedicated counters for fast parcel pickup. Some of the post offices with a Balíkovna counter are also run by our partners. They are called Partner Post Offices.
How long will my parcel wait for me?
Parcels that are ready for pickup at post offices or our partners will wait for 7 calendar days. Parcels ready for pickup from boxes will wait for about 2 working days.
You can find the exact pickup period in the Track parcel tool or in the email notification or in our mobile application. We will inform you by an email or text message about the forthcoming end of the pickup period.
What if I am not at the address on the delivery day?
No problem. Your parcel will be deposited at the nearest pickup location: a Balíkovna located at post office; Balíkovna at other locations; or box. You will just use the pickup code and collect your parcel at a time that suits you.
