Brazillian Post Service keeps all the letters to Santa Claus (we say Papai Noel) and anyone can go to the central post offices to choose and "adopt" one and buy the gift the kid asks, so that the post people will deliver it by Christmas eve. Here is the link: http://blog.correios.com.br/papainoeldoscorreios/ .

I live 20 minutes drive from North Pole, Alaska. Yes, there is a town in Alaska that called North Pole. They have Santa Clause House that I take my kids to every year to see Santa Clause before Christmas. We even saw him in July once. :) They also have raindears in the backyard. This store have website that everybody can visit and order letters from Santa Clause. Check it out everybody!

Thank you for the information....

If you want an "official" North Pole cancellation postmark on your Christmas cards, here is how you do it: (I saved this from a newspaper clipping a long time ago)

1) Affix regular U.S. Postal Service stamps to sealed and addressed envelopes.

2) Put them all in a Priority Mail envelope or box and send it (with the proper postage) to:

North Pole Christmas Cancellation
Postmaster
5400 Mail Trail
Fairbanks, Alaska 99709

The cards, which will be mailed from Fairbanks, should be sent there no later than December 15th, although the postal service will continue doing cancellations through December 23rd.

Here in Brazil we have a service on our official Post, which delivers for years gifts to children that write to Santa Claus ("Papai Noel" in Brazilian Portuguese)... I, myself have been volunteering and helping the post office workers to find people to give these children the gifts they ask for years...
The link to the page is the one below:

I have wrote to the Santa Claus in Hong Kong, and he replied a cute hand-write card to me！

Here's the address:
【General Post Office, 2 Connaught Place, Central, Hong Kong】
Or:【香港,中環康樂廣場二號,香港郵政總部】

Thank you so much for this post! I´m absolutely sure my joungest one will love this! Why didn´t I come up with this idea myself when the other two where still younger? But we will all be writing letters this afternoon :-)

I was lucky enough to be able to help Santa reply to all the Irish children who wrote to him a few years ago. What fun it was and such a pleasure too. Santa was great to work for!!!

In Czech republic there is this address to write (not Santa but baby Jesus):
Vánoční Pošta
Boží Dar 1
362 62 Boží Dar

The one in the Netherlands is not a letter to Santa Claus but to Sinterklaas. In our culture we celebrate sinterklaas from 15 November til 5 December, after that Santa Claus comes.

In Portugal little kids can also send a letter to Santa Claus ("Pai Natal" in European Portuguese) and receive a symbolic present from the post office (CTT). I remember writing it when I was a kid :)

Nice information; however, the Dutch link above has nothing to do with (Father)Christmas.
It shows a possibility to write letters to St. Nicholas, who arrives in The Netherlands 3 weeks before December 6, his birthday.

Swiss children that would like to write to Santa or to the Christkindli can write letters and post them - they will be all collected and replied in the correct language by lots of little helpers ;)
