Parcels for all places in Mar- tinique are accepted; but a charge is made for conveyance from Port de France, the port of disembarkation. The de- livery of parcels for places in Guadeloupe other than Basse- Terre and Pointé-à-Pitre give rise to a charge which is col- lected from addressees.

Guadeloupe: Same as France, except that tobacco is admitted.
