DHL or USPS would be my recommendation. DHL's tracking is better than USPS and their track record is far better than any other courier. Check with them first to make certain they deliver where you need your package delivered.

My fiancee lives in Bulacan (Philippines) and we've been using fedex as our means of sending papers/documents and other stuff! As far as tracking is concern... its good... and the timeline when it will arrive were almost exact as they said!

So I say Fedex for me.... now its for you to decide!!

Thank you for all the answers..

One more question.. How much is the cost for DHL or Fedex to Philippines for a packet of documents?

I found FedEx to be straightforward, reliable, trackable and cost effective. My gal sent me about 25 pages last month. They fit nicely in a FedEx Express Letter pack. Cost was 1200 pesos (about $25USD) - Pampanga to San Diego. 4 days to receive.

I used the United States Postal Service to send some important documents to Claudeth. I think it was priority mail but don't remember but am sure the postal agent at your local office can help you. They guaranteed delivery within 7 days and the docs arrived safe and sound. The cost wasn't all that expensive either but can't remember what I paid. I know it was less than using one of the courier services.

I have found the USPS to be reliable. The packages end up being delivered in country by the local postal service that delivers the country's domestic mail. I was able to manage things so that I could use "Priority Mail" rather than the more expensive "Global Express Mail" but both are good. The issue mentioned by the OP is that the tracking is no good. You only know when it left the US, at most. The faint of heart or those in a hurry for critical documents are usually more comfortable with a courier service. Not all services deliver to all areas but DHL has the greatest penetration, experience and track record in Asia but a wide margin.

I just recently sent a box Fedex with all my important papers. Cost me $97.00 but it got there 5 days just as they had quoted me. I also did it International Express so I'm guessings thats why it costed so much.

The USPS works with FedEx and you'll save a lot of money that way. Go to any USPS that offers international express mail. You'll get a tracking number along with a guaranteed delivery date. They contract with FedEx agents to personally deliver the package.

Hmmm, I just checked that out. Global Express Guaranteed through USPS is contracted with FedEx and is about $50 for a 1 pound package. That might be a great option.

I'm going to drop in on my PostMaster tomorrow and quiz her about it.

Thank you, everyone..Again

I opted for hand delivery by the petitioner (me). Absolutely reliable, trackable, and I knew exactly when the papers got there. It is, however, more expensive than FedEx.

I suspect perhaps the front and even more doors were opened to your courier than to mine, as well as the tip being more "personal" and long lasting.
