8. Personal DHL procede a ensobrar los pasaportes en sobres letter, junto con la carta tipo de bienvenida de la embajada.
10. DHL personnel proceed to put the passports in a letter-sized envelope, together with the embassy welcome letter.
I'm not sure about "letter-sized envelope". Can anyone offer a better suggestion on this sentence, to improve the flow?

You can also get rid of the comma, and probably "proceed to".

"together with" could also be simply "with" - this is more of a stylistic question.
You could also put "then" in place of "proceed to", so with all the changes I suggested -
DHL personnel then put the passports in an envelope with an embassy welcome letter.
.. or with a welcome letter from the embassy.
