Postal services guide
When sending a legal notice, follow the instructions of the lawyer or issuing authority and confirm the appropriate postal service. Keep a complete record of what was dispatched and when.
Before dispatch
- Verify the recipient’s name and complete postal address
- Check the PIN code and any office or department details
- Keep a signed copy of the notice and its enclosures
- Ask which postal product and acknowledgement options suit the purpose
At booking
Confirm current service availability and charges. Retain the receipt, consignment number and any acknowledgement-related paperwork issued.
Legal note
Postal proof may be relevant to a matter, but its legal effect depends on the facts and applicable law. Seek advice from a qualified legal professional.
