Send a Letter to the UK From the USA
Upload or write your letter online — we print it and post it inside the UK via Royal Mail. No printer. No stamps. No post office. Arrives in days, not weeks.
Why people in the US use PostRight
Need to post a letter to someone in the UK, but you live in the United States? Sending it the normal way means slow international mail — and it can take a week or more to arrive. PostRight does it a better way. You upload your letter, or write one online. We print it and post it for you inside the UK, using Royal Mail. So it arrives fast — just like a letter posted down the road.
There are millions of people in the US with ties to the UK — British expats, dual citizens, Americans with UK family, property, or finances. A lot of official business with UK government departments, banks, and offices still needs a real paper letter. PostRight takes the distance away.
You can order at any time of day or night. Place your order before 1pm UK time and your letter goes out the same working day. There is nothing for you to print or post yourself.
Reasons people in the US write to the UK
Common situations where a real posted letter is still needed:
A UK pension
US residents have their UK State Pension uprated — it goes up each year — thanks to a US–UK agreement. Keeping your details current with the DWP often means sending a letter.
UK tax matters
Dual citizens or former UK residents dealing with HMRC — for example, claiming a tax refund or reporting rental income from a UK property.
A UK home or family estate
Managing a UK property, sorting out a will, or dealing with estate matters from the US still needs a real posted letter.
UK banks, savings and official papers
Closing or updating a UK bank account, or sending forms and certificates to UK offices, universities, or government departments.
Also: a UK bank account you need to close or sort out, or any other situation where a real letter to a UK address is needed.
How it works
It only takes a few minutes:
Upload or write your letter
Send a PDF — like a form or a signed paper — or type a new letter straight into PostRight.

You get proof
