Hello,
I have received an email to send my passport for visa stamping to Canada. Currently I am living in USA. On the last page of Indian passport it is mentioned that we can not send the passport to any country by Post. It has to in the custody of the holder or a person authorized by the holder.
I have gone through some forums that sending the passport through couriers like Fedex or UPS would be fine as they are not postal srvices and we authorize them to carry the documents. I am not sure whether how much of this argument is valid.

I have seen many Indians are sending passport to Canada using Fedex or UPS. Could anyone suggest sending the Indian passport to Canada through Fedex is legal or not?
Your response is much appreciated.
Thanks
