Best way to send documents to Canada from UK

[wpsteel79]

Can somebody advise me what is the best way to send my immigration documents to Canada from the UK. I have been put of the Royal Mail recently after been charged over £50 to send a parcel to Canada and not even being able to track it.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks

I just did this in May - I sent it Royal Mail signed-for and no, you can't track it via the Royal Mail website, but I did discover (after a great deal of anxiety about it) that you are able to track it via Canada Post website (using your Royal Mail barcode), so I found that mine had been signed for and successfully delivered. However, I wouldn't send it this way again, it caused me about 3 weeks of anxiety because I did not know that you couldn't really track it. I suggest you send it DHL or FedEx so you can get a receipt of delivery.

We sent ours using DHL, it cost about £48 and we could track it all the way there.

Thanks, just checked another parcel I recently sent to Canada via Royal Mail on Canada Post website and yes you can track the parcel - good to know for the future.
