Hi everyone,

My friend just sent me some very important documents by regular mail from Philadelphia to Hanoi. It's been over a week and I start to be worried now. Has anyone experienced regular mailing ??

Appreciate all the help!

i sent mail from Los Angeles to HCM using standard shipping and it took 11 days. They quoted me 10-25 days.

From Houston to Saigon it usually takes 2-3 weeks if it isn't priority mail. I wouldn't be too concerned yet, but in the future if it is something important, I would send it by priority mail through DHL or FedEx.
