LETTER TO SANTA CLAUS. How to write and send a letter to Santa Claus in 2022? Date, address, model, stamp, online or mail version, here is the key information!
[Mis à jour le 13 décembre à 13h28] It is possible to send a letter to Santa Claus 2022 until Christmas day at least (more details on the date here). It will be received and processed at the secretariat of the man with the white beard, installed at the Libourne post office (Gironde). Associated with La Poste, the Santa Claus team, made up of 50 postal elves, officiates there every year as the holidays approach. Their common goal: that each child who sends a missive to the King of Christmas receives a response.
Since 1962, approximately one million children have sent their list of Christmas gifts to “Little Papa Christmas” each year, often embellished with drawings and other collages. Via the dedicated website, some, around 100,000 of them, even send their message to Santa Claus online.
How to concretely send your letter to the Santa Claus 2022, and above all to be sure that it reaches its recipient before the start of its gift tour on December 24 ? Address by post or online, model letter, reply, stamp… Thanks to the summary above, find all the key information!
The children have until (Tuesday) January 3 to send their letter to Santa Claus. From the moment when the sending is possible, it is preferable to send his mail quickly (in particular if you live in Overseas) because the closer the day of December 24 approaches and the more the man with the white beard is busy, same as its employees.
At what address can children write to Santa Claus? The only condition for the letter to arrive well? Mention Santa Claus in the address! All the following addresses are for example viable, as the site of The post office :
- Small Santa
1 starry sky street
North Pole - Santa Claus
Reindeer Avenue
Lapland - Mr Santa Claus
December 25 workshop
250 Cloud Avenue
1000 North Pole - Santa Claus
33,500 Libourne
France
The latter address is preferred if you are sending your letter to Santa Claus from abroad, in order to be sure that your missive reaches the elves secretariat.
NB: regardless of the place of dispatch, it is imperative that the children’s names and addresses appear on the back of the letter for them to receive a response from Santa Claus.
To order gifts, the easiest way is to write a letter to Santa Claus. To do this, two solutions, specify The post office : sending by paper mail or online. Don’t worry, your letter to Santa Claus will arrive as soon as it is addressed to Santa Claus. Do not forget to add your name and address on the back of the letter so that it is possible to reply to you. The more “geeky” can also send him their missive by email via “Santa Claus.laposte.fr” (click on “Letter online” in the summary above to find out more).
It’s not worth adding a stamp, whether red or green, on your letter to Santa Claus: the sending service to the man with the white beard and the red hat is free. However, it is quite possible to add a stamp to the card or to the envelope: it will look more like a “grown-up” card and Santa Claus will no doubt be happy to be able to enrich his collection of stamps! What you should not forget, however, is to write your full name and address on the back of the card to receive Santa’s response. Be careful, according to Santa Claus himself, it is best to indicate his favorite gifts first: the head of the elves will have to make a choice if the list is too long.
To write a handwritten letter written as politely as possible (Santa Claus is said to be very sensitive to distinguished turns of phrase and beautiful handwriting), with or without drawings (even if this is recommended), before dropping it off in a letterbox, simply mentioning “Santa Christmas”, you can take inspiration from our sample letter to santa claus below. Whatever the address indicated, it will be processed by the Post Office (which handles this type of mail in Libourne). However, everyone knows very well that the real address of Santa Claus is: “Path of the clouds, North Pole”. Do not forget to put on the back of the letter that of the sender!
Second solution for Santa Claus to receive a short message: write to him via the Internet. La Poste has posted a platform for this, in which it suffices to click on “Write to Santa Claus” to be guided. By filling in some data on his own address, the old man could well take a few minutes to write an answer and allow you to have a happy holiday… In the meantime, it is possible to take a look at the real village of Santa Claus, or to prepare now your greeting cards to send by email or social networks for all your loved ones (and it’s free!). You should know that Santa Claus answers more than 1 million letters each year. When we know all the work he has to accumulate in this month of December, we can only take our hats off to him. On the other hand, after mid-December, the old man devotes himself solely to his tour and, before that, to preparing his reindeer. He no longer processes his mail.

Santa Claus,
My name is [Prénom] and I have [Age] year. Christmas is coming, so mum and dad told me to write you the list of presents that I would like to have under the tree. I tried to be very wise and I didn’t do a lot of stupid things this year. I also did well in school and got few bad grades.
I know you won’t be able to bring all the presents, because my list is very long and you receive requests from children all over the world. So, I put a star for the favorite gifts that would make me the most happy.
[Mettre ici la liste ou des collages des cadeaux découpés dans des catalogues]
I hope that you and your elf friends will have enough time to prepare my presents, and I promise I will continue to be as good-behaved as possible until Christmas.
If I don’t fall asleep on Christmas Eve, I’ll wait for you to say hello, and I’ll make sure Mom and Dad don’t light the fireplace.
