Tracking an undelivered letter
Hello, I need some help please. I sent a passport by 1st class unsigned. There was no return address. The letter was not delivered probably because of a missing house number on the address. Post office in Exeter say they have probably sent to it the National Returns Centre. What is the likely hood that this letter will be opened and the contents sent to the passport office or will it be destroyed upon opening?

Re: Tracking an undelivered letter
They won’t destroy it on opening. For most mail they will try to match it with the lost parcel forms that have been submitted (don’t know if there is an exception for passports), which is why it is important to make a claim to Royal Mail on the official form.
