Hi,
We are familiar with delay by Italy postal service. But if you attach a declaration sheet with value, your mail moves faster. This is true for ordinary letters also.
Thanx.

The declaration form was and is always needed for all international parcels. Many courier companies used to do it themselves.

The form should ideally be filled by the person sending the parcel internationally. The form is available at all post offices that have a section for sending international parcels and also at customs office. You can even download the form from EMS, Royal Mail and many other sites of various postal services. The form number is CN23.

Accepted languages for filling the form are - English and French. Apart from these languages the form can also be filled in the language of the country to which it has to be sent (Italian for Italy). English is recommended.
