The Postal Service will continue to accept Priority Mail Express shipments with Label 11-B until September 29, 2023. However, the label will no longer be available for order on usps.com.

The Postal Service continues to offer Priority Mail Express Label 11-M, Priority Mail Express Post Office to Addressee, at manual Post Offices and Label 11-HFPU, Priority Mail Express Hold For Pickup, at all Post Offices.
