Are photos considered printed papers for royal mail

According to Royal Mail's guidelines, photos are considered "printed papers" for the purpose of sending them through the mail. Here's what they say:

• "Printed papers" include:
  • Printed documents, such as letters, invoices, and receipts
  • Printed photographs (including colour and black and white prints)
  • Printed cards, such as greetings cards and postcards
  • Printed brochures, leaflets, and catalogues

As a result, photos can be sent through the mail as printed papers, and they are subject to the same postal rates and regulations as other printed papers.

However, it's worth noting that there are some specific requirements and restrictions for sending photos through the mail:

• Photos must be securely attached to a piece of paper or card to prevent them from getting damaged or lost during transit.
• Photos must not be folded, creased, or bent, as this can cause damage to the image.
• Photos must not be sent in a way that could cause them to be damaged or bent, such as in a loose envelope or without adequate protection.

If you're unsure about how to send a photo through the mail, you can always check with your local post office or consult Royal Mail's website for more information.
