Private enterprises will take over and that means that you'll of course still be able to send a letter.

You won't use a stamp though.

You'll have to write a four or six digit code on your letter which is a little different.

But that also means that as a stamp collector, your collection is complete now.

There will be no more Danish stamps.

Will it change traditions as well?

We will feel it in Denmark around Easter, surprisingly.

We're not really Christmas card people.

But what we are, though, is gag letter people.

And I'm just translating it loosely.

Around Easter, Danish people send each other gag letters, which are very beautifully, most of the time, cut out letters with patterns and little riddles inside.

It was cultivated by H.C.

Andersen, the very famous writer, who was really good at making his gag letters very beautiful.

You write a little riddle, and if the person you sent the letter to guesses who you are, you have to give them a chocolate egg

And if not, it goes the other way around.

Let's see what happens around Easter.

Maybe we have a lot of very, very sad Danes.
