Certificate of Mailing
Need proof that you mailed some first-class letters? A certificate of mailing (also known as a COM, and USPS form 3877) might be a good option for you.
Keep in mind that there are some requirements for the COM option. Your mailings must:
- be sent as a first-class mailing
- include more than 5 recipients
- be mailed in a standard sized envelope (up to 15 sheets of paper per recipient can be included)
If you're sending 5 letters or less then a better option would be to send your letters as certified mail, as that will give you tracking and a signature (upon successful delivery), and it will be more cost effective.
However, if your mailing meets the requirements above then you can request that we add a COM to your job(s) by following these simply steps:
1. Send us an email requesting that we give you access to the Certificate of Mailing feature
2. Once that feature has been added to your account, you can build your job(s) and select the option that says "Add Certificate of Mailing" prior to placing your job in the shopping cart, as shown here:
The cost for this option is an additional $24.95 per job, plus $2.05 per recipient.
Your COM will be accessible within your LetterStream account within 3 business days from your job being mailed.
