Step 1
Determine the type of parcel you are going to send. This choice depends on two factors: purpose and status. At the point of destination, the parcel can be domestic if the shipment is made within the territory of the country, and international if the recipient is abroad. According to its status, it can be simple, ordered and with a declared value.
Step 2
There are a number of restrictions on the content of all mailings, which can be found on the website of the postal service or at the nearest branch. Materials that can be transferred in this way are printed publications, photographs and manuscripts with a total value of no more than 10,000 rubles, excluding pornographic nature or a call to terror.
Step 3
Check if the size and weight of your parcel is within acceptable limits. The minimum measurement should be at least 0.1 m, and the maximum - 0, 9. The smallest weight is 100 g, and the largest varies from 2 kg for shipment within the country to 5 kg outside of it.
Step 4
Select the method of delivery for the declared parcel: land or air transport, or a combination of both. You will be able to track all stages of sending on a virtual site by mailing identifier, consisting of 14 characters, and also inform this number to the addressee.
Step 5
Pick up the letterhead from a branch clerk or information counter. Enter your passport details, registration address, type of parcel and address of receipt. Place your belongings in a bag of the right size and hand them along with the form to the postal worker. Pay for the service.
