Frequently asked questions
What is registered mail (Einschreiben)?
Registered mail is a Swiss Post shipping type where the item is handed to the recipient against signature and tracked along the way.
When is registered mail useful?
When you want proof of sending – for example for a cancellation or a time-critical letter. It is a recommendation, not a legal obligation; check your contract’s requirements.
Do I get tracking?
Yes. After hand-over to Swiss Post you receive an item number for Track & Trace.
Do I need an account?
No. You post the registered item as a guest, without registration, and pay directly.
How much does registered mail cost?
From CHF 8.99 per item, including printing, envelope and postage. Additional pages and the colour option are charged separately and shown before payment.
Can I send a PDF as registered mail?
Yes. You upload your PDF (A4, up to 119 pages, max. 7.5 MB) and select “registered” during the flow.
What happens if the recipient does not collect it?
Uncollected registered items are handled according to Swiss Post’s terms. Whether and when an item counts as delivered depends on the individual case; this is not legal advice.
Can I use A-Post Plus instead of registered mail?
Yes. A-Post Plus (from CHF 5.49) also offers tracking, but without hand-over against signature. Registered mail is the stronger proof.
