How can I figure out whether or not I need to sign for a FedEx package?
The shipper of the item should inform you, the default for residential deliveries is that no signature is needed. However in the case of international shipments. valuable items, prescription drugs, alcoholic beverage, ect a signature is required regardless.You can also contact Fedex if you have the tracking number and request to know if a signature will be required.Your best bet if you are unsure is to leave a signed note on your door for the courier, this will cover anything that you don’t to sign for in person (like alcohol). Make sure the note is where they can see it and take it, because if they cannot take the note as proof they cannot use the note as proof.
Why do FedEx packages have to be signed?
Packages only need to be signed for if they were shipped with a signature request, or have a value over a certain amount. There are a couple of reasons why they require signature.The person who sent the package wants to make sure that the right person receives it. This will usually be a direct signature required by the person who is shipping the package.The package is being shipped to a business, and they want to have a paper trail of who actually received the package so that if it does not make it to the correct department, they know who within the organization to go talk to about where it may have ended up.The shipper has put a high declared value on the item that requires a signature in order for their FedEx “insurance” to cover the value in case of lost or misdelivered packages.A signature is intended to act as acceptance of responsibility for the package and the contents. Basically, when you sign for a package, you are stating that you received the package, that the condition of the packaging was what you expected, and that you are responsible for making sure that it makes it to the intended recipient from that point, if it was not shipped to you directly, such as if you work at a receiving department in a company.
Do you have to sign for a Amazon Package? ?
This is from Amazon help. "Packages that contain more than $400 of merchandise will always require a signature; otherwise, it is generally up to the driver's discretion to determine whether a signature is required. If the driver feels it is best to obtain a signature and no one is present to accept the delivery after three attempts, the package will be returned to us." You can always put a signed note on your door indicating that it is ok to leave a package and you take full responsibility for any theft. ₪ ɦəlʞɹɐq ₪
Does Ebay make you sign for the package?
For good or bad, your delivery person can (more or less at their discretion) leave the package right at your door or leave a notice telling you that they tried to deliver your package but you weren't around. IF you have Signature Confirmation on the package, then they should NOT just leave the package and just leave a notice. Signature Confirmation is an option your seller may or may not include when they shipped the package. So requiring a signature is ultimately up to what the seller did. It really has nothing to do with eBay itself. Hope this helps.

Do you need to be over 18 to accept and sign packages or deliveries in Sydney, Australia?
No. The delivery person will cheerfully take the signature of anyone he/she can find so they can complete the delivery and move on with their day. I sign for things from time to time, when there is no one in reception (Lana, who is some sort of angel, cannot be everywhere at once): the delivery person does not even check that I have any connection with the company (I’m just a random middle aged woman who was passing through reception when they were trying to rid themselves of a package). Any signature will do. I strongly suspect that if I could get one of my cats to sign then that would satisfy the requirements of the process.
Is it legal to forge someone's signature with their consent?
Someone asking you to “sign on their behalf” is effectively asking you to represent them in doing a certain thing, which qualifies you as a mandated party. You basically have an unwritten contract in which it is stipulated that you sign for someone else, on their behalf.You would have to use your own signature, not theirs. This means that you’ve agreed that you sign on their behalf and that your signature on any relevant (..) document is the same as their signature on that document.If you’d however use their signature, that’s something else entirely, with or without their consent, should the signing be done in order to produce any sort of legal consequence whatsoever, such as in the situation of signing a check.One situation in which it’s most likely legal to use someone’s signature could be the following: you get commissioned to use someone’s signature as a wall decoration (do it over and over across a wall, for decorative purposes).This all varies with jurisdiction etc though I’m pretty sure on the basics.
