You or the authorized person will be required to show proof of identification to the courier upon delivery.

10. In order to safeguard your purchase, the carrier will only deliver to the specified address and to you or one of the people indicated on the notes of the order as being authorized to receive your parcel.

11. The courier will request proof of identity from the person receiving the parcel if this was indicated in the “notes” field of the order.

      • breakages, and/or
      • damages and/or
      • Items missing.

Both parties (the courier and the person receiving) will need to co-sign their names against this indication. If the receiving person chooses to still accept the damaged carton, the waybill will reflect that a damaged parcel was received and accepted with both parties co-signing.
