International mailing?

Question

im writing to an acquaintance in switzerland, and since hes rather busy, i was going to enclose a self-addressed stamped envelope. i went to the post office, and they said i would need postage from switzerland for the letter to be mailed back.

how can i get swiss postage?

is there another way i could do this?

i basically just need a way to enclose enough postage for the letter he'll send back.

wasnt quite sure which category this would be in....

Answer 1

Either you just enclose some dollar bills (in Switzerland we can't change coins at the bank but bills only) or you ask for a prepaid international voucher at your post office. With this international voucher people abroad can go to their post office and change it into national postage.

some pages of the Swiss post office:
