What is the fastest and cheapest way to mail visa documents from the US to Korea? Someone said I needed to do FedEx or UPS, but I think the USPS would be cheaper and just as good. Any advice? |

My school only allowed me to send them FedEx/UPS/DHL for tracking purposes... *shrug* |

I really recommend FEDEX or DHL when sending things to Korea. I know that it costs more but it is definitely the safest. I've seen too many documents sent by USPS that have gotten delayed, lost or misplaced and teachers losing jobs because of it. People aren't advocating FEDEX or DHL to make any money they advocate it because it's safe.
Also when sending your docs they are worth nothing. Your degree is not worth $120,000. It's just a piece of paper. If you state that your things are over $100 it will be stopped at customs and taxed. |

Priority / express / EMS post from the post office is the same as a the others but usually cheaper.
They are also trackable and traceable - just like FEDEX and DHL.
It doesn't take any longer either. |
