parvenir

to reach / to arrive / to succeed in doing something

It comes from the verb venir (to come), so it follows similar patterns.

🔥 Important uses of parvenir 1. 📍 To reach / arrive at a place

👉 Le colis est parvenu à destination
= The package reached its destination

2. 🎯 To succeed in doing something

👉 Elle est parvenue à résoudre le problème
= She managed to solve the problem

3. 📩 In formal/business French (like your sentence)

👉 faire parvenir = to send / forward (politely/formally)

Because it’s from venir:

👉 parvenir → est parvenu(e) (past)
👉 uses être in passé composé

Example:
👉 Le dossier est parvenu
= The file arrived
