Prepare your parcel for postage
- Meter frank or stamps should be placed in the top right-hand corner
- Complete, correct & legible address should be used – include a full postal/zip code where applicable
- For international parcels with a value greater than €300, the CP72 form should be completed accurately and attached to your item. All other items should have a CN22 (these are available from your local Post Office).
- Appropriate packaging & labelling should be used for fragile items
- Parcels will be machine processed on their largest most stable side (the base); therefore affix the parcel service label to the centre of the opposite side (the top)
- Please note that a PO Box is an insufficient address for any signature service
