Acknowledgement of receipt

Written confirmation of delivery

The return receipt (AR) is additional proof of the successful delivery of a registered letter. This proof of delivery is sent to you by A Mail following delivery.

The return receipt (AR) provides you with extra peace of mind. It confirms that the item has actually been handed over to the recipient.

  • Legally binding proof of delivery
  • When combined with personal delivery (RMP), it also serves as proof of identity
  • Can also be used for international registered letters
  • Remains valid even after Swiss Post’s three-year retention period has expired

The additional, physical proof of delivery serves as a compelling means of proof for complaint handling purposes and for legal cases.
