Document courier from Chennai
Certificates, visa papers, legal and business documents, delivered fast and tracked.
Document courier is for papers with no commercial value: certificates, mark sheets, visa and PR applications, legal papers, contracts and tender documents. It is usually faster to clear customs than goods, and the carriers price it separately from parcels. Aramex, for example, has a dedicated Priority Document Express service for document and printed-matter consignments.
What counts as a document
- Printed and handwritten papers, certificates and letters
- Sealed transcripts and application forms
- Legal agreements, board papers and tender documents
- Passports only if the embassy or visa centre instructs it
What does not
Anything with commercial value, such as a USB drive, sample fabric, a gift or a card with a gift voucher, can turn the shipment into a parcel with different paperwork and charges. Keep documents separate from goods.
Tips
- Scan everything first and keep copies.
- Never open a sealed transcript.
- Use a rigid envelope or board-backed pack.
- Write the full address with postal code and a phone number.
- Ask for signature on delivery for originals and share the tracking number with the receiver.
