寄送文件到本社

许多客户使用Postal Priority Mail with or without delivery confirmation (便宜且比较可靠)。 您也可以使用Express Mail, FedEx, and UPS，优点是有tracking。 虽然我们并不推荐，还有一些客户使用普通邮件（first class letter mail），就象护照中心邮寄护照给您的一样。

邮局的certified或registered邮件可靠但非常慢，Signature confirmation with Priority Mail也比Delivery Confirmation慢。 如果您时间紧时要特别注意。 You may use our Travel Planner to calculate the total time it takes to get your passport back.

特别需要指出的是您寄Priority Mail或Express Mail的时候，最好使用邮局提供的免费信封。有些邮局出售的Cushion Mailer容易破损，请不要使用。

⁽¹⁾ The shipping fees are based on shipping upto 10 passports per package and apply only to 48 US continental states. For all other areas, or even within the 48 states, if the actual shipping cost is excessively higher than listed, you will pay the actual cost of shipping and we may not ship your documents back before payment is received.

⁽²⁾ Both FedEx and US Postal Service say that their overnight services are available for most cities. For certain cities, they may not be able to deliver the next day, even if you paid the rate for next day delivery. Although both services are very reliable and usually delivery on time, we have seen delays using both services. So always plan ahead and allow some extra time.

⁽³⁾ Postal priority mail does not provide tracking, but offers delivery confirmation. The 2-3 days delivery time is for most areas. During holidays, it can take a week or more (just like regular mail).

⁽⁴⁾ Tracking information for FedEx is usually available 2-3 hours after pickup (about 7:30pm). For Postal Express Mail, the tracking information is often not available until next morning. If you tend to worry about your package, please select FedEx.

⁽⁵⁾ Puerto Rico: The cost of shipping for US postal service is the same, but is higher for FedEx.

Postal Priority Mail

Priority Mail offers 2-3 day service to most domestic destinations. It provides online delivery confirmation (not tracking). It delivers on Saturdays but not on holidays.

Postal Express Mail

Express Mail offers overnight service to many destinations and is guaranteed or your money is refunded. Express Mail is delivered to many locations Monday to Saturday (extra charge for Sunday and holidays) - and delivered next day by noon to select locations. Express Mail provides tracking and insurance up to $100 at no additional cost.

FedEx Overnight and FedEx 2day

FedEx services provide online tracking, but usually do not deliver on weekends or holidays.

The pricing for FedEx is complex and depends on distance, and it has additional fees for residential delivery, weekend delivery. Our fees are set for typical distances. You are welcome to include a prepaid FedEx envelope for mailing back your documents.

Overseas Shipping

(Document only, no passport/visa) Shipping to overseas is expensive and the time varies. We recommend sending us a prepaid envelope for this service. We also offer the following options to Hong Kong and mainland China (16 oz or less): US postal Priority Mail International $15 (6-10 days), US postal Express Mail International (EMS) $30 (3-5 days), FedEx International Priority $70 (3-7 days).

Responsibility

While mailing services are generally very reliable (remember that US passports are sent to everyone through regular letter mail), but lost mails do happen from time to time. We will not be responsible for documents lost during the mailing process. However, we will provide you with all tracking information or confirmation of delivery once they are available to us.
