Certified Mail is Often a Legal Requirement for Delivery
Government entities are often required by law to send important documents through Certified Mail. Notices related to taxes, property liens, and court summonses are just a few examples of items that can be sent via Certified Mail with Return Receipt. This is to ensure they are delivered and received by the intended recipient. Using Certified Mail with Return Receipt includes a signature at delivery which helps to protect the legal rights that the documents were delivered for both the government and the recipient.
Certified Mail Tracking Helps Keep our Government Accountable
Government entities are accountable to the public for their actions and decisions. Certified Mail provides a clear record of the acceptance, delivery, and receipt of important documents, which helps to ensure transparency and accountability. This is particularly important for documents related to public services, such as permits, licenses, and zoning changes. It’s also important for time-sensitive documents including court summonses and city notifications where missing a deadline could incur additional fees or penalties.
Certified Mail Provides Secure Delivery
Some government documents contain sensitive information that must be protected. Certified Mail with Return Receipt provides an added layer of security by requiring a signature from the recipient upon delivery. Certified Mail software provides the ability to receive Return Receipt Electronic, a PDF file that contains delivery address, the time and date, along with the signature of the person accepting the mailpiece to help make the entire process more efficient.
