Authorizations at Swiss Post
Collection by third parties at a branch
Authorizations: everything you need to know
With an authorization, you permit other people to collect all consignments for you or your company at the post office counter. This includes parcels or important documents such as debt collection, court documents and outpayment slips with reference number. The authorized persons confirm receipt of the consignment with their signature.
Useful information: no authorization can be issued for consignments with the “Personal delivery” value-added service. You must collect these in person.
More information can be found in the “Authorizations” factsheet (PDF, 49.1 KB).
