There's no doubt that shipping important documents (like passports and birth certificates) can be stressful.
With that being said it’s important to choose a
shipping partner that will guide you through the whole process, provide you with parcel tracking and be your single point of contact.
Ensuring that your goods go undamaged is all the more necessary when sending or receiving important documents. A passport, contract or other important document that gets damaged in transit will cause you a lot of unwanted stress. That’s why it's crucial to choose the right envelope, bag or box to ship your specific documents in. This will go a long way in minimising the risk of damage and ensuring that your documents arrive safely at their destination.
