The post office in San Martino Sannita, in the province of Benevento, is undergoing modernization and infrastructure works linked to Poste Italiane's Polis project.

The project will convert the local branch into a service point for both postal operations and public-administration documents, including INPS services, civil and registry certificates, and tax codes for newborns, according to the reports from Poste Italiane and local news coverage.

Closure and temporary office

The office at Via Municipio 3 closed to the public from 21 September 2026 to allow the restyling and infrastructure works to take place.

During the closure, customers can use the post office in San Giorgio del Sannio, at Viale Aldo Moro 123.

The municipality lists the following opening hours for the temporary location:

  • Monday to Friday: 08:20–19:05
  • Saturday: 08:20–12:35

Residents who normally use the San Martino Sannita branch should plan for travel to San Giorgio del Sannio for the duration of the works and check opening hours before visiting, especially on Saturdays.

Planned reopening

Reopening of the San Martino Sannita office is planned for 13 October 2026.

The municipality notes that the date is subject to possible changes caused by unforeseen circumstances. The sources do not specify the cost, contractor, or final scope of the local works.

What the Polis project is

Polis targets post offices in municipalities with fewer than 15,000 inhabitants, combining modernization of post-office premises with expanded access to public-administration services.

Poste Italiane describes the initiative as a means to support social, economic and territorial cohesion by bringing central-administration services closer to smaller communities.

For a small municipality such as San Martino Sannita, the expected benefit is fewer trips to larger towns or administrative offices for routine certificates and documents.

What to expect after the works

The renovated office is intended to provide INPS services, civil and registry certificates, tax codes for newborns and other public-administration documents.

The available sources do not confirm which individual Polis services will be operational immediately upon reopening. Residents should check the municipality's notices or ask at the branch after 13 October for confirmation of the active services.
