Will royal mail redirect dvla letters
According to Royal Mail's website, they can redirect letters from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) for a fee. However, there are some conditions and limitations to consider:
- Redirecting DVLA letters: Royal Mail can redirect letters from the DVLA, but only if the letter is addressed to the customer's current address. If the letter is addressed to a previous address, it may not be redirected.
- Fees: There is a fee for redirecting letters from the DVLA, which is currently £33 for 12 months or £66 for 24 months.
- Limitations: Royal Mail cannot redirect letters that are sent to you by special delivery or recorded delivery. These types of mail require a signature upon delivery, and Royal Mail cannot redirect them.
- Timeframe: The redirection service is usually set up within 3-5 working days, but it may take longer in some cases.
- Notification: If the DVLA sends a letter to your old address, it will not be automatically redirected to your new address. You will need to contact Royal Mail to report the letter and request that it be forwarded to your new address.
To set up a redirection for DVLA letters, you can:
- Visit the Royal Mail website and fill out the online form.
- Contact Royal Mail customer service by phone or email.
- Visit a Royal Mail post office branch in person.
Remember to provide your old and new addresses, as well as your name and any other relevant details.
