FAQ
Wizarding post was delivered using owls. Some wizards and witches preferred to use their own personal owls, but the Owl Post Office was also a large and reliable network for owl delivery that offered speedy and safe communication.
After you've filled out the letter and put a desired recipient along with your official Hogsmeade stamps, take the letter or postcard and place it inside the wood cabinet that says, “Post” and drop inside the slot. From there, let the owls do their work and fly it to the proper person.
There is only one way that a student is selected to go to Hogwarts, and that choice isn't made by a person. In fact, it is made by a book and quill. In a tower at Hogwarts, where no student goes, sits the Book of Admittance and Quill of Acceptance. These objects decide who gets a place at Hogwarts.
The letter was written on parchment paper and delivered to the recipient by owl, except in the case of Muggle-borns. When a student was Muggle-born the acceptance letter was delivered in person by a member of the Hogwarts faculty.
Harry Potter's initial acceptance letter was delivered by regular Muggle post, as Vernon and Petunia Dursley were aware of the existence of the wizarding world and Hogwarts. Hogwarts was able to magically tell whether or not a child had read his or her Hogwarts letter.
In the world of Harry Potter, they send mail and packages by owl. Yes, it's exactly how it sounds. Other birds can be used, but the predominant shipper is owls. Most of the time, a single owl will deliver the mail items, but in some cases of overlarge packages, multiple owls will team up.
Ing to the rules of the Harry Potter universe, only those with magical ability that are born in the United Kingdom and Ireland (or move there at a young age and manifest magic that then gets registered by the Hogwarts Book of Admittance and Quill of Acceptance) will get a Hogwarts letter.
Sending a letter All mailings are required to have postage, but if you don't have stamps with you, don't fret! Hogsmeade has you covered with two options. One stamp has Hogwarts castle and the other option is the Hogwarts Express. Each sheet of stamps includes ten stamps and each sheet costs $14.95.
For the actual prop, they didn't use a font, as it was handwritten by Miraphora Mina (one of the main graphic designers on all the Harry Potter – and now Fantastic Beasts – films). The font you see here is a recreation which made by a fan (you can read about that here: The Perfect Hogwarts Acceptance Letter…)
The letter is written on parchment paper and delivered to the recipient by owl, except in the case of Muggle-borns and magical children living with Muggles (such as Harry Potter), where the initial acceptance letter is delivered by the regular Muggle post.
