# Royal Mail Importers - Freight to Post Onboarding Process

**Step 1:** Intersoft will contact you to provide our [Onboarding Form](https://onboarding.intersoft.co.uk/customer-onboarding-form?hsLang=en) for your review and completion. A Sandbox account will also be created to facilitate your initial testing activities.

**Step 2:** Upon completing your development work, please complete and submit a [Sandbox Test Pack](https://kb.intersoft.co.uk/sandbox-test-pack-requirements?hsLang=en) to onboarding@intersoft.co.uk using the subject line format: *CustomerName\_TestPack\_DateSubmitted*

*All the guides and documentations can be accessed [here](https://kb.intersoft.co.uk/sandbox-guides-and-documentation?hsLang=en), International Arrivals Container guides can be found [here ](https://kb.intersoft.co.uk/intelligent-shipper-containerisation-api?hsLang=en)and the Sandbox API URL endpoints are listed [here](https://kb.intersoft.co.uk/api-url-endpoints?hsLang=en). *

Details on Freight to Post API Requirements can be found [here](https://kb.intersoft.co.uk/royal-mail-api-call-requirements-for-international-shipments?hsLang=en). <https://kb.intersoft.co.uk/royal-mail-commercial-clearance?hsLang=en>

**Step 3:** Once your Test Pack is reviewed and approved by Intersoft, we will issue your production credentials.

**Step 4:**You will then be required to complete Royal Mails Customer Data Solution sign off process as per below instructions.

- Generate 3 labels per service
- Allocate those shipments to a container and Manifest the container
- Submit the PDFs to [onboarding@intersoft.co.uk](mailto:onboarding@intersoft.co.uk). They will be forwarded to Royal Mail for review and sign off.

**Step 5:**You will then be required to complete Royal Mails sign off process as per below instructions.

- Generate 20 live shipments using the intended services
- Print physical labels using production printers at your site
- Send 10 labels to Sharon Bullman and the remaining 10 to the Distribution Hub (Address details will be provided by Intersoft). 

Please note: Physical label verification is only required when setting up a new Royal Mail account or Posting Location. For existing accounts and locations, PDF label submission is sufficient for Go Live approval.

**Step 5:** Once physical labels are approved, your integration with Intersoft is now finalised and ready for live operations. Your Royal Mail Account Manager will confirm a Go Live date with you.
