India Post registered mail: keep the booking receipt and ask about acknowledgement

Postal services checklist

When sending important papers, keep a clear record of the booking and ask the counter staff which delivery confirmation options apply to the service available for your destination.

At the booking counter

  • Confirm that the item is accepted for the selected registered mail service
  • Ask whether an acknowledgement or proof-of-delivery option is available
  • Verify the recipient address and PIN code
  • Check the current charges before payment

Keep these records

Retain the booking receipt, tracking or article number, a copy of the documents and any acknowledgement slip issued.

Do not assume

Features and availability can differ by product and destination. Confirm the current service conditions with India Post before booking.
