In principle, bpost does not open letters. There are a number of reasons why we do open letters (read the General Terms and Conditions ): We cannot deliver the letter to the addressee and there is no return address on the envelope. We open the letter to identify the sender. That enables us to return the letter. My letter is damaged. What happened? It's possible that our sorting machines damaged the envelope. That happens occasionally to thick letters or letters with a special size. In that case, the sender should choose a reinforced envelope or a parcel.
You’ll get an email or a notification in the My bpost app stating the delivery date and location as soon as your registered mail is on its way. You still have time to change the time or place of delivery in the app. Your options: You can postpone delivery until the next working day. You can have the registered mail delivered straight to a Post Office or Post Point. Please note that you won’t be able to change this choice afterward. If you are not at home you can have someone else take receipt of your registered mail based on a proxy .
