Royal Mail diversion!

Royal Mail diversion, also known as mail diversion or mail redirection, is a service offered by Royal Mail that allows you to redirect your mail to a new address. This service is useful when you're moving to a new home, going on a long trip, or need to receive mail at a different location.

Here are some key things to know about Royal Mail diversion:

How it works:

  1. You can apply for mail diversion online or by visiting a Royal Mail post office.
  2. You'll need to provide your current and new addresses, as well as your name and contact details.
  3. Royal Mail will then redirect your mail to your new address for a specified period (usually up to 12 months).
  4. You can choose to divert mail to a UK or international address.

Types of mail diversion:

  1. Permanent diversion: Redirects your mail permanently to a new address.
  2. Temporary diversion: Redirects your mail for a specified period (up to 12 months).
  3. One-off diversion: Redirects a single item of mail to a new address.

Fees:

  1. Permanent diversion: £33.00 (plus VAT) for up to 12 months.
  2. Temporary diversion: £15.00 (plus VAT) for up to 12 months.
  3. One-off diversion: £5.00 (plus VAT) per item.

Important notes:

  1. Mail diversion only applies to mail sent to your current address, not to mail sent to your new address.
  2. You'll need to keep your mail diversion active until you've received all your mail at your new address.
  3. Royal Mail may not be able to redirect certain types of mail, such as large or bulky items.

If you're planning to move or need to receive mail at a different location, Royal Mail diversion is a convenient and secure way to ensure your mail reaches you.
