When you mail a letter to Denmark, you will need to include a postal code (same as a zip code) which is always 4 digits long. These are listed before the city name. For example: 2500 Valby. The postal code is 2500 and the city is Valby.
Postage to Denmark. The easiest way to send letters from the USA to Denmark is with Global Forever Stamps for $1.20 each. You can also use regular, domestic forever stamps as long as they add up to $1.20. Extra postage is required over 1 ounce.
Forever Stamps are always sold at the same price as a regular First-Class Mail stamp. Customers can use Forever Stamps for international mail, but since all international prices are higher than domestic prices, customers will need to attach additional postage.
The cost of a one-ounce First Class Mail stamp is $0.55 at the Post Office, or $0.47 if you buy and print stamps online using Stamps.com.
If you use "Forever" stamps, those are worth $0.47 each, so you'd need 2 of those and another 21¢ in postage, or the Post Office sells "International Forever" stamps for $1.15 (valid for one ounce). Also: The $1.15 is the base international postage for a 1 oz. letter to ANY country, however, once you are at the 2 oz.
Shipping costs vary by weight, size and method, as you might imagine. USMail overland is probably cheapest but slow and a box weighing about two pounds is about $12 but can take two or three weeks. UPS can deliver in 4-5 days and a laptop costs around $45, but you always have to factor in customs charges.
Each stamp is worth the current first-class rate (not what you paid for them). So if you paid $0.49 and the rate rises to $0.50, you can put two Forever Stamps on a package to get $1.00 worth of postage. You can also use Forever Stamps to send letters internationally.
A first-class stamp will rise from 70p to 76p, and a second-class stamp from 61p to 65p, on 23 March.
(Believe it or not, customs officers will feel and sniff each piece from certain countries!) But, those are a low volume of international mail. The reason letters can take a fair bit more time than domestic is that you have to add in transport and processing time within both the country of origin and receipt.
Customs will be allowed to open all international mail to check for drugs. However, they have to request permission from either the sender or the recipient to open mail weighing 30 grams or less, which usually consists of letters or other private or business correspondence.
First class mail from the states can take from 3 days to 2 weeks. I know because I have sent mail to my brother in Ireland as well. I work for Royal Mail in the UK - a normal letter from the US to the UK usually takes about 4 days.
Preparing the Letter for Shipment. Fill out a customs form. You can complete customs forms online or at the post office. You do not need a customs form if you are sending your letter by First-Class International Mail, or if you are using a Priority Mail International Flat Rate envelope in the U.S.

While Priority Mail is faster than Standard Mail (packages, that is - not speaking of Standard advertising letter mail) due to the type of transportation used. Neither are as fast as First Class letter mail, though Priority Mail sometimes can be as fast.
Well, by definition - surface mail goes by the 'surface of the Earth', rather than by air. It is transported by road, and by sea - and therefore takes a lot longer than by aeroplane. The longer it spends in transit, the more chance (perhaps maybe) that it will be damaged.
