When you send important documents via courier often you feel insecure, as the mere thought of someone tampering with the document can take away your sleep. Is there any way you can use to know whether the envelope is altered by someone in the shipping process?
With Tamper-proof bags and envelope you can know whether you are being a fraud by the shipping company and ask them to refund and resolve the issues. Parcelchief advise our customers to use tampers proof envelopes for making courier of your important documents.
Here 5 important features of the tamper-proof bags/envelope which will make you use them whenever you need to make a courier to the Germany.
Features of Tamper Proof Envelopes:
“VOID” – tamper-evident seal:
The key feature of the envelope is it will let you know whether it is opened or not by someone, and how it works? It uses “void” which is a tamper-evident seal. After you have sealed the bag or envelope it gets packed and if someone tries to open it to mess with the item inside, the seal gets disturbed and lets you know the item is being tampered. It is the most important reason many courier service UK ask to keep the document in Tamper-Proof Envelopes.
Bar code and sequential numbering:
Other stand out feature or we can say added security feature is you can print bar-code tag and consecutive serial numbering. It helps a person to track down the parcel in the shipping. The barcode can be used besides the shipping company tracking number as one is available on the envelope and there is another space to put a barcode on the “writable removable receipt”. In case you find the consecutive number doesn’t match up with the barcode you can ask the shipping company and report the breach of the envelope.
Tear-off receipts:
When you use tamper-proof bags for your courier to the Germany of your documents there is the tear-off receipt that is present on them. The tear-off receipt holds the record of the document inside the envelope. All you need to do is create a code for tear-off receipt and Parcelchief can help you in that process if you don’t understand what do, so do not worry.
Only one place to open:
There is only a place where the package can be cut open, in case anyone tries to cut it from another place it will get evident and you can report it to the shipping company.
Tamper evident graphics:
In case you think someone might use more than just scissor, let’s say heat or stretch the envelope, the tamper-proof bags will let you know about that too. The graphics present on the front of the bags is aligned in case someone stretches it or use heat to open seal the alignment of the line and graphics get disturbed and can’t be aligned again. You get to know about the tampering that happens in between the shipping process.
