According to ENACOM Resolution 4592 “Procedure for the management and final disposition of lagged shipments”, postal shipments in lag situation (those that the provider has tried, without success, to deliver to the recipient and there are not enough data to individualize and return to their sender or depositor, or when he refuses to receive them) will undergo the following procedure:
  • Once the impossibility of returning the postal items is determined, the postal operator must keep them on guard for a minimum of TWO (2) months.
  • Those postal items whose external signs, allow us to suppose that contain perishable or easily decomposed items, as well as those that present leaks or are in inappropriate conditions for storage, will be subjected to the lag procedure immediately.
  • Once the advertising periods have expired, without the sender or the recipient submitting a request for recovery, postal operators must declare all shipments that have not been delivered in that instance as lagging and proceed to open them.
