When to use a courier
Some company documents are hard or slow to replace. An apostilled certificate, a notarised document or a signed original can take weeks to obtain again if it is lost in the post. Our UK courier service sends them by tracked delivery, so you can see where they are at every stage.
It is often added to:
- printed formation documents from the Certified Package;
- apostilled documents and notarised documents;
- original post we hold for you under Mail Handling and Forwarding.
Why tracked delivery matters
Standard post is fine for everyday letters, but it gives you little proof of where an envelope is. With a tracked courier, you can see when the documents leave our office and when they are delivered. If a delivery is delayed or missed, the courier's tracking record makes it much easier to find the package and arrange another attempt.
This matters most when someone else is waiting for the documents, for example a bank, a solicitor or a buyer with a deadline.

Delivery times
Most deliveries arrive within 1–2 working days of dispatch. Remote areas, including some Highlands and islands addresses, may take longer. Times are the courier's estimate and cannot be guaranteed. Dispatch happens once your documents are ready — for example, after the apostille is returned.
If nobody is in when the courier calls, the courier normally leaves a card and tries again or holds the package nearby for collection. Make sure the phone number you give us is correct, so the courier can contact the recipient.
For delivery outside the UK, choose our International Documents Courier.
