Signatures – USPS Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested
USPS Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested Signatures are available in a PDF file from the U.S. Postal Service and may be purchased either before or after you mail your USPS Certified letter. A copy of the Return Receipt Requested Signature is collected even if you do not pay for the Signature at the time of mailing. The signature is collected and digitally stored by USPS as a part of the United States Postal Service Certified Mail Special Services Delivery Confirmation system in California. USPS Special Services provides similar services for Express and Priority Mail.
The Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested Signature is created in PDF file format on USPS stationary. The Signature displays either a signature or stamp from a company including the date and time your USPS Certified Mail was delivered.
You may purchase the Signature image service that is delivered in PDF file format. The signature is collected by the letter carrier at the time of letter delivery. The image is either the recipient’s actual signature or a stamp used to mark the letter delivered.
USPS charges $1.10 for the Signature service if you purchase the service in advance of the mailing. You can also purchase the Signature service ‘After Mailing’ that costs $4.60. Even though it costs more, our experience has found most companies only need to provide proof of delivery, and proof of mailing. The USPS proof of delivery is summarized in the Electronic Return Receipt – ERR that displays the actual Certified Mail article number, date, time, deliver post office and delivery address information. Should you need a PDF of the Signature, you can purchase it as you need it ‘After the Mailing’.
Certified Mail Envelopes supports options for Proof of Mailing, Proof of Delivery using Electronic Return Receipt delivery confirmation and the Signature service from USPS in PDF file formats delivered in our website, bulk download, or secure FTP delivery signature extract files for download.

It appears you mailed using USPS Postal forms because the tracking number you reference begins with ‘70XXXXXXXXXXXXX’. Sorry do not have access to this data. If you would have used our service the number would begin with’71XXXXXXX’ and we could help you by printing the delivery receipt, signatures or even tell you the ‘in-route’ tracking status. You may want to look-up your number at usps.com. Keep in mind – you do not see any in-route information or delivery confirmation until your letter is closed out by USPS. This can take 3 to 4 weeks.
I’m not quite sure how to get the e signature. How can I use this service without going to the post office?
