7. Extensions to the <strong>Redirection</strong> term7.1 If you require the <strong>Redirection</strong> to be supplied forlonger than the period specified on the relevantapplication, you should make an extension applicationonline, by phone or by post (as applicable). Wemust receive your extension application at leastfive working days before the end of the current<strong>Redirection</strong> term to ensure an uninterruptedservice. Renewals cannot be made at a <strong>Post</strong> <strong>Office</strong>.<strong>Redirection</strong>s can be extended up to the maximumperiod stated in clause 6.3.7.2 You cannot extend a <strong>Redirection</strong> more than threemonths after it has expired. You will need to completea new application if this happens.7.3 There is a charge for extending the duration of the<strong>Redirection</strong>. The charges are variable. Current pricesare available from our Customer Services team, <strong>Post</strong><strong>Office</strong> branches <strong>and</strong> are shown at www.royalmail.com/redirection. We will confirm the price to you atthe time you request an extension.8. Limitations on the <strong>Redirection</strong> service<strong>and</strong> timing of deliveries8.1 <strong>Redirection</strong>s can only be provided from a single oldaddress to a single new address.8.2 The old address must be within the United Kingdom.8.3 You accept that a <strong>Redirection</strong> may impact upondelivery times. We will use our reasonableendeavours to deliver redirected mail in accordancewith our usual timescales but this is not guaranteed<strong>and</strong> delays may occur. You should make alternativearrangements with the sender (such as using thenew address) if timely delivery is critical. We willnot be liable for any reasonable delay in deliveringredirected mail.8.4 Guaranteed delivery dates, such as those providedunder the Royal Mail Special Delivery service, do notapply to redirected mail. Royal Mail Special Delivery<strong>and</strong> Signed For items will still require a signature ondelivery.8.5 We can redirect mail to a British Forces <strong>Post</strong> <strong>Office</strong>address but cannot redirect from a British Forces<strong>Post</strong> <strong>Office</strong> address.8.6 We do not provide <strong>Redirection</strong>s where the oldaddress is a multi-occupied address <strong>and</strong> which doesnot have a unique delivery point. Such premisesmay include a single office shared by a number ofunrelated organisations. You may be able to usethe Royal Mail Diversion service as an alternative(see www.royalmail.com/diversion).8.7 We cannot provide <strong>Redirection</strong>s where the oldaddress is a <strong>Post</strong> Restante address, or where thenew address is (i) a <strong>Post</strong> Restante address outsidethe United Kingdom or (ii) a Royal Mail delivery office.8.8 We cannot redirect Royal Mail Special Deliveryitems, Packets or Tracked or Signed For items toaddresses outside the United Kingdom. We will notredirect items carried via our Tracked High Volumeservice marked Restricted Goods. We cannot redirectoutside the United Kingdom any item over 25mm inthickness, or 100g in weight, that appears to containgoods. Items below this thickness <strong>and</strong> weight, <strong>and</strong>items obviously only containing printed-paper, can beredirected abroad. These restrictions exist because:(a) items containing goods sent to non-EUdestinations require a CN22 or CN23 customsdeclaration. These must be completed <strong>and</strong>signed by the sender at the time of posting.We cannot complete these forms as part of a<strong>Redirection</strong>;(b) all countries, whether in the EU or outside ofthe EU, have specific lists of prohibitions <strong>and</strong>restrictions detailing what can <strong>and</strong> cannot besent to those countries. We cannot Redirectitems abroad where we do not know theircontents <strong>and</strong> those contents might breach theprohibitions <strong>and</strong> restrictions in the destinationcountry; <strong>and</strong>(c) international maximum size restrictions are40% smaller than those allowable in ourdomestic services.8.9 Any items sent using any of the services set outin clause 8.8 while a <strong>Redirection</strong> is in place will bereturned to the sender. Anyone expecting items to besent to the old address using one of these servicesshould tell the sender to use the new address.8.10 We will only redirect items that are sent using ourpostal services. Parcelforce Worldwide items, <strong>and</strong>items delivered by any other postal operator, willnot be redirected by us. We will not be responsiblefor the delivery service provided by any other postaloperator.8.11 There are laws that prevent us from redirectingcertain items. There are also laws that require us toreturn certain items to the sender <strong>and</strong> we may needto inform the authorities of this (for example, mailfrom government departments related to benefits).Even if we accept an application, any such items willnot be redirected to the new address.8.12 We do not have to provide the <strong>Redirection</strong> if youdo not keep to the agreement(s) you have with usor any other reasonable terms we tell you about.Neither do we have to provide the <strong>Redirection</strong> if weconsider it unsafe or unreasonable for us to do so.8.13 We cannot redirect items classified as TrackedPermitted Goods.9.
