Documents delivery abroad: what to check before shipping
This page is about sending documents from Ukraine abroad: contracts, certificates, diplomas, notarized papers and business correspondence. The main task is to keep the shipment clearly documented as papers only, without goods, money, data carriers or restricted items inside.
Documents are usually easier to process than goods, but only while the envelope contains papers and nothing else. A small object inside the envelope can change the shipment category and cause customs questions.

- business correspondence and printed documents up to standard document format;
- tickets, business cards and selected banking papers after carrier review;
- document shipments with no commercial goods or hidden objects.
What needs prior review
For documents, restrictions should be checked before packing. Sensitive, unusual or commercial contents may require a precise description, photo or document before a carrier is selected.
- cash, securities, payment cards and valuables without prior carrier approval;
- passports and identity documents where destination rules prohibit them;
- documents containing state, commercial or regulated confidential information;
- any item that customs may treat as goods rather than documents.
