A new post office has been opened in the Chewaihyia region of Tunisia's Kairouan governorate, at a cost of approximately 80 million dinars. The office, which has been assigned the postal code 3117, aims to provide financial and postal services to residents, reducing the need for them to travel to other areas. The post office offers a range of services, including financial transactions and postal services.
The new post office was opened on Monday, and it is expected to benefit residents of Chewaihyia and surrounding areas. The office is open from 8am to 12pm and then from 2:30pm to 4pm.

The post office is expected to make a significant difference to residents, particularly the elderly and those receiving pensions.
The post office will provide various financial and postal services, allowing residents to carry out transactions without having to travel to other areas. The office will be equipped with an automated teller machine (ATM) for cash withdrawals, which is expected to be operational soon. This will provide residents with access to financial services 24/7.
The ATM will allow pensioners, current account holders, and holders of postal and bank cards to access financial services at any time. The post office's location on the main road linking Kairouan to southern Tunisia makes it easily accessible. The office is part of a broader effort to strengthen the postal network in the region.
