For my wife it took 7 weeks between submission and getting the passport back. However, with VFS processing your passport, it could be a bit shorter.

Do you understand that anyone can give you such sources for the best of the countries in the world, do you consider these sources as credible, discrete sampling is not the way to define a system and a country. Defining a plural entity with singularity is nothing but stupidity. Dihydrogen...

My wife also got a call from VFS yesterday to collect her package, Singapore dispatched the passport on June 25 via registered mail, according to the information I got from my friend at Singapore who collected information on my wife's behalf. So I guess Singapore CHC starts dispatching the...

Do you understand that you make a lot of baseless comments and try to flow them as they are facts. Do you even realize people are mostly simple and they may take your comments seriously. You had made comments about the postal service, domestic power situation etc. in Bangladesh so far without...

Did you get an e-mail from Singapore about sending your passport (am talking abt the standard e-mail they sent before mailing the passport). I am only worried since they mentioned that they would mail the passport on May 25th and its been a month since.

Haven't received the passport yet, from a inside source whatever I could gather, it looks like they never mailed the passport at the first place. I kept sending them e-mail, no answer, sent fax, sent e-mail to Dhaka CHC - they can't help. Sent e-mail to MP-waiting for a reply...............This...

You should check your facts before making them public. As per SingPost, the time for registered article (assuming air mail) for BD is 5-10 +2 (for registered article) business days. Weekends are different between Singapore (sat and sun) and BD (Fri and sat), so that adds one more day to the...

Already looked into that, both at Dhaka central and the airport. They haven't got the pkg yet, as per their record.

Hi all, I actually decided to go with the registered as I had nothing but vague answers from these courier cimpanies in BD. Singapore mailed the passport on May 25, 2012 as per the e-mail communication, however I have not receieved the passport yet. A bit worried, it's been more than two weeks...

Hey Bloomfield, can you please, That would be a big favor.

Yes I got that standard e-mail from them yesterday. Now have to figure out how to get the passport, I am going to stick with registered I think, using commercial courier is too much hastle I guess, and not everyone has people in singapore to hand pick the passport. Even if I had someone they...

mzr have you decided to go with registered mail, have you received your passport yet? How reliable you think would be the registered mail? Thanks.

Hey Bloomfield, When I spoke to FedEx they actually told me about the problems they usually encounter while dealing with BD customs. Just wanted to know how you convinced them and who you talked to. Did you have to provide any authorization or declaration for the courier so they can pick your...

Guys here is where I am at, I have spoken to DHL and FedEx, Dhaka. DHL don't provide prepaid service and both DHL & FedEx have concerns about how BD custom will deal with passport carried by them. It appears that BD customs don't like the idea of these courier companies carrying passport to...

I get it, registered mail sucks in BD, and you must have a lot of confidence on DHL/UPS/FedEx- 000.1% is equal to 0.1% ;D So to send my passport via DHL, I need to give them an authorization so that they can carry my passport, right?

It sure make sense!!

Sorry Amy,like everyone else I have no clue whatsoever.

Yes I do, from the liability standpoint. It just takes longer, no surprise there! So when you say if I think it is more reliable, it somehow shifts the focus to something other than what I meant, may be I was not clear. However, it would be premature from my part to be conclusive or make any...

Duly noted! But I honestly think registered mail are safer, liability issue (transferred to CHC-Singapore) as I articulated in a previous post. However, it is perhaps a good idea depending on the quality of experience people have who already have gone through that process. So I would urge to...
