Description
Because eVS integrates with other systems and business processes for data collection and performance measurement, eVS makes it easy for customers to prepare and induct parcel mailings, streamlining their internal business processes as well as those with the Postal Service.
Mailers who use eVS receive these key features and benefits:
- A single national permit account for all mailing sites
- No permit imprint application fee (annual mailing permit fees will apply if required for a mail class; however, mailers migrating to eVS are not required to pay additional annual fees if their annual fees are current with an existing local permit at the time the eVS permit is opened; annual fees are due for the eVS permit for eligible mail classes at the time of the annual fee’s renewal)
- Bypass traditional Mail Acceptance/Verification process at Business Mail Entry Unit; enter mail directly at Origin or Destination facilities
- Flexible mail entry time with FAST appointment
- Elimination of the PS Form 8125 for Drop-Shipments
- Electronic postage statements generated from the SSF are visible in PostalOne!® along with additional account monitoring and mailing data reports
