Royal Mail's Signed For services provide compensation up to a certain amount in the event of loss or damage to your item. The amount of compensation you're covered for depends on the type of Signed For service you use and the value of the item being sent.

- Signed For (up to £500): This service provides compensation up to £500 for loss or damage.

If you need to send an item worth more than the standard compensation limit, you may want to consider using a more expensive Signed For service or purchasing additional insurance coverage.
It's also important to note that you'll need to declare the value of the item being sent on the customs form and provide a detailed description of the item. This will help ensure that you receive the correct compensation in the event of loss or damage.
