Do you need to show ID for DPD?
Please bear in mind that DPD Pickup parcelshops require photographic ID – so it has to be a passport or photo driving license - to release your parcel. The following types of ID are not accepted: Student ID.
Not all the drivers will ask to see the ID. On the DPD website it does say that if you are self isolating you can leave a note on your door telling the driver you are self isolating and then they will leave the parcel on the doorstep and take a photo as proof of delivery.
If you can't bring any of the above ID in the name of the person the item is addressed to, you can still collect. This also applies if you are collecting an item addressed to a child. You'll need to bring: The Something for you card (or electronic SMS/email notification)
No problem! You're not at home to take delivery of your order, and it's also not possible to deliver to the neighbours? Then we'll still do our absolute best to get the parcel to you as quickly as possible. After the first delivery attempt, DPD will deliver your parcel to the nearest Pickup parcelshop.
The United States Postal Service requires an ID to send certified mail, Priority Mail Express, insured mail and other package services. You will likely be asked for an ID based on the list of services that require one. Keep in mind that not all forms of ID are accepted for every USPS service.
If you can't take your Pickup pass, either printed or on your smartphone, you'll need two forms of ID: your passport or driving licence, and a utility bill.
If you have no photo ID, a copy of your original Birth Certificate or National Insurance Card will be accepted provided it is accompanied by a passport sized photo that is countersigned on the back by someone who can confirm your identity.
Yes, in addition to their own ID, that person must also bring a copy or photo of the ID of the actual recipient so that we can check the name and details with what is on the parcel.
How many attempts are made to deliver a parcel? The driver will make one delivery attempt. You're not there? The driver will try to deliver your parcel to your neighbour or at a Pickup parcelshop, so that you may receive your parcel as soon as possible but not later than 7 days.
If you need someone else to collect your package on your behalf, they'll need to bring a valid government-issued photo ID or another valid photo ID containing the full name and proof of connection to the address on the UPS label or to the named person (named person's valid ID or photocopy).
What ID can I use if I don't have a passport or driving licence UK?
You can use a UK birth, adoption or naturalisation certificate, but you must send it with one of the following: National Insurance card, or a letter from the Department for Work and Pensions or HM Revenue and Customs showing your National Insurance number - find your National Insurance number if you've lost it.
Birth certificates are not evidence of identity, and are easily obtained. Although certificates issued at the time of birth may give more confidence that it belongs to the individual, unlike a recently issued certificate, they will not show if any information has been corrected or superseded by a new registration.

Parcel collection services are ever popular, as they give freedom to the sender to get on with their day uninterrupted.
The carrier may refuse to collect your parcel under the following circumstances: Lack of/insufficient packaging.
All financial institutions, including Western Union, are required to collect additional identity information to know their customers better. When we understand who is sending money to whom, we can help protect your money from being used for illegal activities.
Not at all. Bring your mail to the counter and they will accept your package with no identification. You may drop off most mail without speaking to anyone.
