A Maxibrief shipment within Germany is currently 2.90 Euro for up to 1 kg and up to 5 cm thickness. That rate is listed in Deutsche Post’s 2026 domestic brief postage table and applies to letters sent within Germany.

Useful details

  • Maxibrief: 2.90 Euro.
  • Maximum weight: 1 kg.
  • Maximum size: 25 x 35.3 cm, up to 5 cm thick.
  • If you need to ship goods rather than a letter, Deutsche Post’s Warensendung starts at 2.70 Euro, with a 0.85 Euro surcharge for higher weight tiers.

Note

Some third-party sites mention higher or different “Maxibrief” prices for other countries or older formats, so the domestic Germany rate above is the relevant one for a shipment inside Germany.

If you want, I can also give you the current prices for Großbrief, Maxibrief Plus, and international Maxibrief in one table.
