Shipping From The USA

[coa24 69]

I am sure this has been answered before, but unable to find. When shipping documents, etc to the Philippines, do you have to specify a home address or can you have it be picked up? I ask because I feel the place I am living at now is very difficult to find and wondering if it would prolong getting important documents. Any suggestions.

My fiance sent the docs through USPS. I tracked it on their website and they notified me through email that the document is already in the post office.I went to our post office here and got the documents. My fiance sent it to me friday and it arrived in the post office by next friday.

Please never ever ever use USPS to the Philippines at all. You can look at the many topics in this subforum to find out that the USPS to the Philippines sucks

He put a home address still. I think the post man was looking for me by the time it arrived to deliver it.He cant find me because we just move here and people around dont know my name. I know its already in the post office so i picketld it in the post office..i just presented an ID and paid

Who are you going to use if you don't mind me asking, and what province are you living? 

 

You can use the city and the buranguy, but make sure your phone number is on it. Then you will be fine.

Can you try sending it through Registered Mail so that you have a definite tracking number?

You don't need a wet signature. Scan the document after signing and email it to the beneficiary.
