   • A completed application form (available on the Royal Mail website or by contacting your local Royal Mail office)
   • A plan or map showing the location of the development
   • A list of the properties being built, including their addresses and postcodes
4. Pay the registration fee: There is a fee for registering a new build address with Royal Mail. The fee is currently £150 + VAT (subject to change).
5. Wait for approval: Royal Mail will review your application and may contact you for further information or clarification. Once approved, you'll receive a confirmation letter and a unique reference number.
