India Post parcel booking for medical documents: packing, address and receipt checklist

India Post parcel booking for medical documents: packing, address and receipt checklist

Medical reports and non-restricted paper records can be sent by post when correctly packed. Check the destination address, permitted contents, service option and booking receipt before dispatch.

Before you book

Keep documents in a clean, waterproof inner sleeve and use a rigid envelope so pages do not bend. Write the recipient’s full name, complete address, PIN code and a reachable phone number.

At the post office

Ask the counter which domestic mail product suits the size, weight, urgency and contents. Confirm current charges and any applicable restrictions before payment.

Keep proof

Save the booking receipt and consignment number. Use the official India Post tracking page to check available scans; a scan may take time to appear.
