Judicial Registered Mail is an exclusive service for Openapi and allows sending any type of Judicial Act (registered letters as per articles 139, 140, 660 of the Civil Procedure Code and 157 and 161 of the Criminal Procedure Code) in just a few seconds, with tracking and delivery notification systems, all via API.

The notification of judicial acts can be sent to one or more recipients (no limits), whether private individuals or businesses, but exclusively to a standard address. Judicial registered mail cannot be sent to PO boxes.

REQUEST EXAMPLE

POST/atti_giudiziari

The request must include sender and recipient data, and the content can be plain text, formatted HTML, a URL (pointing to a webpage, a PDF, or an image file), or a base64-encoded PDF file.

  ],
 - "options": {
    "duplex": false,
    "color": false,
    "ar": false,

} }

During the request phase, you can send it immediately by setting the "autoconfirm" option to true or save it for later confirmation by setting it to false and using a PATCH request.

The number of pages for judicial registered mail can range from 1 to 100. For more than 50 pages, the printing type must be set to duplex (front/back); otherwise, an error will be returned.

The return receipt (A/R) is mandatory for judicial registered mail and has probative value. The data for receiving the return receipt must match the sender's details.

It is also possible to fully customize the cover page of the communication, including logos, company details, or promotional messages. Customization can be managed via API or through the Playground, which also provides a preview before dispatch.

Judicial registered mail is a trackable service, and the tracking code is provided in the request response.

The judicial registered mail service includes:

  • The acceptance document, certifying the successful dispatch and the sending date.
  • Digital storage of the content, signed and digitally timestamped by Poste Italiane. Legally compliant digital storage certifies the content, making it indisputable in any legal dispute, and is available for download for 2 months.

Both services can be requested through dedicated endpoints.

The average delivery time for judicial acts in Italy is 5 business days plus 2 days for printing.

In case of the recipient's absence, the registered mail must be collected at the office indicated on the notice of stock, and after 30 days, it is returned to the sender.

The indicated price is "starting from." All detailed pricing is available in the console pricing section and can be accessed in the response to the POST /atti_giudiziari/ (autoconfirm="false") endpoint. The cost of each dispatch is calculated based on the number of pages and selected options and is detailed by postal fee, printing, and enveloping.

It will be the client's responsibility to retain the document provided by us (a document compliant with Article 3 of Law no. 53 of January 21, 1994, digitally signed and timestamped). If the client has not opted for the purchase of digital archiving, the same document provided to the client will be deleted from the archives of this company and Poste Italiane 2 months after the purchase.
