After PPR - How to get the passport back?!

[Kearnixer]

Hi guys,
Really getting nervous here. Got the request to send the passport to Vienna office (I live in Switzerland). I want to go for the private courier option (DHL). To send is no problem but how can I have it returned by DHL? Talked to DHL and they say that there is nothing such as a pre-paid return envelope or coupon!! They say the only option I have is to instruct the VO in Vienna to tell me when the passport is ready so I can arrange a pick-up via the customer service of DHL (to be paid y me). Would that actually work???! I have the feeling the VO is super bureaucratic and I have no idea if they really would be so kind to contact me when it's ready so I can arrange for the pick-up. Has anyone experience with VO Vienna? How did you do it??

Thanks!!!!

Congrats on your PPR!
Is there a VFS Canada office in Switzerland?
They offer secure transmission and return courier of passport + COPR in most countries.

My VO is in Vienna- and in Switzerland there is no "pre paid return envelope" or "pre paid commercial courier cupon" as mentioned in my PPR E-mail.
I can send my passport without any problems but the question is how to get it back. Do you have any ideas how should I proceed?
