Children can now send their Christmas wish lists directly to the big man himself over in the North Pole.
That's because Royal Mail's hugely-popular Santa Mail scheme has returned for 2025.
With just over a month to go until Christmas Day is officially here, Royal Mail is once again helping to make festive wishes come true by lending a helping hand to one of its most special customers, Santa, just like it has done for more than 60 years.
The postal service will be sending children’s letters and Christmas wish lists directly to the 'North Pole' this year.
Santa’s team of helpers at Royal Mail are gearing up to deliver the hundreds of thousands of letters sent to him by children from all across the UK.
With the very busy Christmas period ahead - one of the busiest times of the year for the postal industry, by far - Royal Mail is encouraging children to get their letters written and sent as soon as they can - with the cut-off date being no later than Wednesday 10 December.
To send your letters to the 'North Pole', you need to pop them in a stamped envelope and send them to this special address:
Santa / Father Christmas, Santa’s Grotto, Reindeerland, XM4 5HQ.
Don't forget to include your name and full address on your letter, so that Santa knows where to send his replies back to.

"Royal Mail continues to play a cherished role in the nation’s Christmas traditions," commented Lisa Luveniyali, Royal Mail’s Chief Elf, who oversees the safe delivery of children’s letters to Santa at his magical grotto in Reindeerland.
"For over 60 years, we’ve proudly helped Santa manage the thousands of heartfelt letters sent by children across the UK.
"Our dedicated team of festive elves especially love seeing the wonderful wishes children share, and helping Santa send his replies.
"Just remember to include a stamp, your full name, and address so Santa knows where to send his response."

American rapper cancels rescheduled Leeds gig AGAIN due to ‘ongoing illness’
Action Bronson cancels Leeds gig for a second time, and it's safe to say fans aren't happy.
Ariyan Arslani, better known by his stage name Action Bronson, is an American rapper, chef and TV personality with a huge following.
The star was meant to perform at Project House last Tuesday 30 June but the show was cancelled the morning of, and subsequently the venue released an updated date of Tuesday 7 July.
It seems fans of Bronson may be experiencing some deja vu, as the gig has yet again been cancelled with short notice.
Except this time, no rescheduled date has been given.

The statement by Project House reads: "We have been informed by Action Bronson's team that regrettably, due to an ongoing illness he will be unable to perform at Project House this evening.
"We're incredibly sorry to be cancelling at such short notice. We had hoped last week's postponements would allow for sufficient recovery time but sadly, that has not been the case. Action is as disappointed as we are and we'd like to wish him all the best. Refunds will be issued from the point of purchase."
And it's fair to say the comments are...interesting, with fans far from happy about a second cancellation.
One comment reads: "Well enough to play two shows in London and one in the Netherlands, but just can’t seem to shake a cold to get to Leeds."
Whilst another disappointed fan commented: "He’s not ill guys! Obviously not a knock on the lovely folks at project house, but that’s a bullshit reason he and his team have come up with for insurance purposes!"
