Find canonical answers about the RNS.ID subscription experience and the mailing services operated by Pacific Mail Hub.
Provider and eligibility
Who provides Palau Mailing?
Pacific Mail Hub provides and operates the service. RNS.ID facilitates the subscription, confirms the qualifying Palau ID, and displays available status information. See RNS.ID and PMH responsibilities.
Do I need a Palau ID?
Yes. The current application requires an active Palau ID. Expiration or revocation of that ID can suspend the mailing service.
Does the mailing address prove that I live in Palau?
No. It is not a residential address or proof of legal residence, domicile, or tax residence. Third parties decide whether they accept it, and acceptance for address verification is not guaranteed.
Application and notarization
Does payment activate my mailing service?
No. Payment does not by itself activate the service or guarantee application approval. Complete the required document, Form 1583, and video-notary steps, respond to PMH’s requests, and wait for approval and activation.
It is a required step in PMH’s current onboarding flow. Review the form generated from your application details before signing. If you need clarification about the requirement or your documents, ask PMH before purchasing. See Requirements and Form 1583.
Why do I need a home-address document?
PMH uses supported secondary evidence during onboarding and Form 1583 processing. The name and address entered should match the document.
Which files can I upload?
PMH currently requests three named files: the Palau ID image, one Secondary Address ID image, and the completed and signed PS Form 1583 PDF. Images must be JPG, JPEG, or PNG, the form must be PDF, and each file can be up to 10 MB. Rename each file with the applicant’s first and last name as shown in Requirements and Form 1583. The current PMH upload page controls if its requirements change.
Why does RNS.ID only show In Progress?
In Progress is a summary that can include an incomplete application, an ID hold, review, a correction request, or waiting to schedule the meeting. RNS.ID does not currently show those detailed PMH states or a continue button. Check the PMH application email for the current detail and secure external action. If the RNS.ID subscription or status display is missing, contact RNS.ID Support.
Is the video-notary meeting required?
Yes. The current onboarding flow requires a scheduled online video session. PMH sends the meeting link and instructions to the email used for its application.
What if I miss the meeting?
Follow PMH’s newest emailed rescheduling instructions. RNS.ID may continue to show Meeting Scheduled because that summary can also cover a missed or failed meeting. The application remains incomplete until the required meeting succeeds.
Address, forwarding, and renewal
When will I receive the assigned address?
The address appears after PMH completes the required review, Form 1583, notarization, and activation steps. Monitor RNS.ID status and PMH email rather than relying on a fixed processing estimate.
Contact PMH using the details in your active service page. RNS.ID currently displays pacificmailhub@gmail.com for forwarding requests.
Does the subscription include every forwarding cost?
Do not assume it does. PMH determines current mail-handling options, destinations, carriers, and applicable charges. Confirm them with PMH before requesting forwarding.
Why is my mailing service suspended?
A required Palau ID may have expired or been revoked, or the subscription may need attention. Restore the ID first when applicable, then open the mailing page for the next action.
Where do I get help?
Use RNS.ID Support for RNS.ID checkout, account, subscription, or displayed-status issues. Use PMH for onboarding decisions, notarization, assigned addresses, received mail, and forwarding.
