How to find out where a registered letter is by number. Free postal tracking

How to track the movement of a parcel from abroad?

To track the movements of international postal items (IPO), a postal monitoring system has been developed, the main tool of which is a unique tracking number. This number consists of digital and alphabetic characters, and is also duplicated in the form of a barcode. Modern postal logistics terminals are equipped with barcode scanners and, when the IPO passes through such a terminal, the tracking number data is read and sent to the servers of the international postal monitoring system.

Thanks to this system, it is very easy to find out the location of the MPO. This can be done on government websites postal services or private logistics companies. In addition, there are convenient tracking services - trackers that combine tracking systems of many countries and private carriers.

What is a tracking number?

Tracking number is a number for tracking the movement of your cargo, provided by postal services. The tracking number is standardized by the Universal Postal Union and has a strict structure.

The standard international tracking number is XX123456789XX:

  • the first letters indicate the type of shipment, for example, CA-CZ – parcel with tracking, EA-EZ – express parcel sent by one of the international express delivery services, for example EMS, RA-RZ – small registered package with tracking, LA-LZ – small package without tracking
  • Next comes a unique eight-digit code, and the ninth digit is a verification value calculated using a special algorithm,
  • latest letters indicate the country from which the parcel was sent, for example, CN - China, US - USA, DE - Germany.

Official and complete information is available here (PDF document, English).

To check if your tracking number is up to standard, use the form provided on the UPU website (Excel spreadsheet).

The seller provided a tracking number, but there is no movement of the parcel.

  • Information in the mail monitoring system may be delayed. The normal situation is a delay of 3-5 days.
  • The seller provided a pre-reserved number, but the package has not actually been shipped yet. Wait 3-5 days and clarify the situation with the seller.

I just paid for the order, and the seller already gave me a tracking number. All this is suspicious.

There is nothing suspicious about this, because abroad there has long been a system for reserving postal items that are purchased in advance. The seller only needs to enter the addressee’s details and print out the finished form with a tracking number.

What information can I get from my tracking number?

Using the tracking number you can get the following information:

  • method of sending MPO;
  • where (export) and where (import) MPO is moving;
  • find out the stages of movement of international goods - export, intermediate delivery points, import, customs clearance, delivery to the addressee within the territory of the recipient’s country;
  • mass of MPO (not always provided);
  • Full name and exact address of the recipient (usually this information is available on official trackers of postal and courier services).

Judging by the track number, the parcel is heading to another country.

  • The seller mistakenly provided the track number of another parcel or confused the numbers. Ask for clarification on this point.
  • There was a failure in the mail monitoring system. The parcel will still be delivered to its zip code and address.
  • The seller deliberately provided a different track number; the parcel might not have been sent at all, hoping for the lack of experience or inattention of the client. Chinese sellers often sin with this.

The IPO tracking number has a non-standard appearance. Why?

The standard tracking number of the form XX123456789XX is specific only to national postal operators that are members of the Universal Postal Union (UPU). There are several common reasons for receiving a non-standard tracking number:

  • The parcel was sent through large private delivery services - DHL Express, UPS, Fedex, SPSR, Meest, etc., which have their own internal standards for generating a tracking number. Typically, this number has only a numeric format and is tracked on the websites of these services or on aggregator trackers;
  • The package was sent from China via local carriers.
  • The seller made a mistake when writing the tracking number. Here you need to check with the seller that the number provided is correct;
  • the seller knowingly provided false number tracking for the purpose of deceiving the client. This is typical for Chinese sellers on Aliexpress. In this situation, only a dispute will help.

My order was sent through a national postal operator, but the number for international tracking not provided. Why?

Not all postal items automatically receive an international tracking number. The fact is that all MPOs are divided into “small packages” and “parcels”. A standard small package (parcel) is considered to be a shipment weighing less than 2 kg and is not assigned a tracking number. In some cases, it is possible to register such an IGO for an additional fee and receive a tracking number. MPOs weighing more than 2 kg fall into the category of parcels and are assigned a tracking number, but even in this case it does not always have an international format. Parcels are divided into regular and priority (registered). The latter have an international tracking number.

Who should provide me with the tracking number?

In the case of purchases in foreign online stores and auctions, the tracking number is provided by the seller after payment for the order.

What determines the speed of MPO delivery?

There are a lot of conditions and factors here. The main ones include:

  • choice of delivery method - regular or priority (express) mail;
  • choice of delivery operator - state postal service or private express carrier. Delivery speed by private courier services can be 3-5 times faster than using regular postal services;
  • features of the work of postal operators in a particular country. For example, USPS mail is much faster than Russian Post;
  • distance between sender and recipient;
  • depending on the time of year, weather conditions, disasters. For example, during the Christmas sales and pre-New Year rush, the flow of parcels increases sharply and postal operators do not have time to process all parcels on time. This causes delays.

When exactly will I receive my parcel?

There is no exact answer to this question. In this case, it is much more accurate to use the concept of expected delivery time. The website of each national postal operator contains information about the average delivery time by one method or another to a specific country. Stores also provide this information when choosing a delivery method.

The situation is clearer with courier carriers - DHL Express, UPS, Fedex, SPSR, etc. In 80% of cases, delivery is carried out the same day or within the next 3 days (if there are no problems at customs).

Delivery times for standard MPOs to Russia from the USA and European countries vary within the following time limits:

  • EMS departures- 7–14 days.
  • Registered parcels and parcels - 14–30 days (depending on the distance from key centers of international postal exchange).
  • Simple packages and parcels - 18–40 days.
  • The average delivery time for parcels and parcels from China and Southeast Asian countries is about 21–40 days.

I was sent a parcel weighing 1 kg (for example), but according to the track number in Russia, the weight became 0 (or much less than 1 kg). What is this connected with?

This is a very common situation when, after export to Russia, the parcel “loses weight” down to 0 grams. It’s just that some sorters are too lazy to weigh each MPO and enter this data into the tracking system.

The second option is sadder. If at any stage of delivery or customs clearance the parcel suddenly loses weight, this may indicate theft of the investment. This is a direct reason to insist on opening the parcel at the post office upon receipt. A parcel with a difference in weight must have a corresponding certificate.

Parcel DHL Express, UPS, Fedex detained at Russian customs (sent to the store). For what reason?

The most common reason is exceeding the investment value limit for courier MPOs, which for Russians is 200 euros. You can read more about the features of courier services in our articles:

Also, some courier services arrange delivery only in big cities Russian Federation and, if you are a resident of a small town on the periphery and do not have the opportunity to come to the company’s office, then the parcel will be sent back.

My package ended up in another country. What should I do?

There are two possible reasons for this:

  • The parcel is delivered in transit through third countries and the final destination has not changed. There is no need to worry, this is normal practice. Especially when delivered by courier services.
  • The seller mixed up the tracking numbers or entered the delivery address incorrectly. This happens extremely rarely and the problem should be resolved directly with the seller.

The package was sent from the USA via USPS. What is this and where can I track such parcels?

Delivery from China (Aliexpress and other stores) via Swiss Post and Sweden Post

The Chinese began to use the services of European carriers due to serious bans on the shipment of Li-Ion batteries by China, Hong Kong and Singapore Post.

As a rule, the parcel arrives in the destination country within 2-4 weeks from the date of receipt of the “sent to airline” status. Typically, the “sent to airline” status does not change until the package reaches its destination or is delivered to the recipient.

Be careful if more than 30 days have passed after receiving the “sent to airline” status and you still have not received the package. Perhaps it got lost or its shipment was delayed in another country. In order for the seller or store to return your money, you need to file a claim.

What does the “Import Security Scan” status mean?

If your package has received the “Import Security Scan” status, there are three options:

  • If the package was originally sent from outside China, and the LOCATION column indicates a city in China, for example, Beijing, Shanghai, etc., this means that the package was delivered to China, and will be delivered to the recipient after customs clearance. See the question How to get a refund for a lost parcel or a parcel that took a very long time to be delivered.
  • What does the “Import Customs Scan” status mean?

    If your package has received the “Import Customs Scan” status, there are three options:

  • If the package was originally sent from China and the LOCATION column shows a city in China, such as Beijing, Shanghai, etc., it means the package was sent back to China from overseas. Typically, the package is sent back to the supplier and the recipient will receive it later if the supplier pays an additional shipping fee and sends the package again.

    What should I do if the status of my parcel does not change for a long time from the status “Export Security Scan”, “Export Customs Scan”?

    What does the status “Success find: 0 items!” mean? or " China Post has not received the parcel”?

    If you tracked the parcel by tracking number and the status of the parcel is “China post has not received the parcel” or “Success find: 0 items!” (“Result - 0 parcels”), this means that the seller (supplier) gave you a non-existent (invalid) tracking number, which is not assigned to any sent parcels in the China Post database.

    There may be several reasons:

  • The tracking number is incorrect.
  • Less than 48 hours have passed since the seller sent the goods, China Post has not yet updated the information about the parcels.
  • The seller has not shipped the items for some reason, such as “out of stock,” but plans to ship them later.
  • To understand what we're talking about in the three points above, you need to know how the parcel tracking system works by number:
    China Post can easily attach a label with a non-existent number to any package. The tracking number is invalid and the parcel cannot be tracked until China Post assigns the tracking number to it. Paypal, ebay and Aliexpress sometimes receive non-existent tracking numbers from many scammers who send these numbers to fill out payment information. Many marketplaces such as ebay or Aliexpress require the seller to ship the order within 24 hours of payment, so some sellers may provide a non-existent tracking number to avoid penalties. Later, when the seller restocks the goods, he uses the same tracking number to ship the goods, and using this number it will be possible to track the parcel on the website within 48 hours after the actual date of dispatch.

    What should I do if the status of my parcel is “Success find: 0 items!” or “China Post has not received the parcel”?

    • If you received the tracking number within 48 hours after shipment, you may need to wait two more days until the China Post database is updated.
    • If you received a tracking number more than two days ago, you may need to contact the seller and check with them for the real shipping date and real parcel number. Tell the seller that you want to track the package using the number on the website within 48 hours after shipment, otherwise you will file a claim. As a rule, the seller gives new number tracking, actual dispatch date or planned dispatch date, which can be checked later on the website.
    • If the seller again gives you incorrect shipping information or doesn't respond at all, you should file a claim with ebay, Aliexpress or Paypal and ask for a refund. You can also leave negative feedback about the scammer after your refund.

    What does the “Export Security Scan” status mean? How long will it take?

    What does the “Export Customs Scan” status mean? How long will it take?

    “Export Customs Scan” means that the package is ready for customs inspection. Once the customs check is completed, the parcel will be sent by airmail.

    What does the status “Arrival at inward office of exchange” mean?

    “Arrival at inward office of exchange” means that the parcel has been delivered to the customs office of the destination country. Once customs clearance of a parcel received from abroad is completed, the parcel will be delivered to the recipient by the postal service of the destination country.

    What does the status “Departure from outward office of exchange” mean? How long will it take?

    “Departure from outward office of exchange” means that the parcel is ready for customs inspection. Once the inspection is completed, the parcel will be sent to airmail.

    What do the statuses “NULL”,”PEK NULL”,”PVG NULL”,”Opening” mean?

    Some users, after searching on other sites, see that the parcel status is “NULL”,”PEK NULL”,”PVG NULL” (“PVG NULL”) or “Opening” ) etc. In fact, these strange statuses are errors resulting from incorrect translation of the China Post database.

    How to file a claim and request a refund for an incorrect parcel number and a parcel that was not received?

    Many recipients whose parcels are delivered by China Post often ask the following questions:

  • The tracker site informs that the parcel was returned to the seller, but he does not confirm receipt of the return and refuses to return the money, how can I get the money back?
  • The tracker shows that the package was returned to the supplier, or displays the status “unsuccessful delivery”. How can I get a refund from China Post?
  • The parcel status has not changed for more than 40 days, I still have not received the parcel, can I contact the seller or China Post about a refund?
  • The answers to these questions are almost the same:
    China Post does not deal directly with the recipient. China Post accepts inquiries and claims only from the supplier who has an original receipt for acceptance of the goods for transportation.
    So, it is better for the recipient to use the mechanisms provided by ebay, aliexpress, paypal and file a claim for non-receipt of the parcel as quickly as possible.

    Once you have filed a claim, the seller must confirm that the package was successfully delivered to the buyer. If he/she cannot provide such confirmation, the money will be automatically returned to the buyer.

    How to file such a claim for non-receipt of a parcel?
    On ebay, paypal and aliexpress there is a link to a web page called a "dispute resolution center" or "claims center". You can file a claim for non-receipt of your parcel there. All detailed guides you will find on the site:

    Is there a period when I can file a claim for non-receipt of a parcel?
    YES. On ebay and paypal you need to file a claim within 45 days of payment. On aliexpress this period is 60 days.

    What if I missed the claim deadline but still want a refund?
    If you missed the deadline for filing a claim, the only thing you can do is contact the seller. Large sellers with big amount positive reviews will most likely offer an option that suits you in exchange for positive feedback. This will increase sales in their store.

    What if I purchase items from a site that does not have a "claims center" and I did not pay through PayPal?
    Unfortunately, in this case it will not be easy for you to get your money back, often impossible. Therefore, we advise you to buy goods from Chinese sellers at large trading platforms such as ebay, Aliexpress, Amazon, DX, etc., with high level protection of buyers' rights.

    If you buy goods on little-known sites, try to pay for purchases through Paypal. NEVER use bank transfers, money transfer systems such as Moneygram or Western Union, electronic currencies such as bitcoin to pay for goods, even if you make purchases on well-known sites - ebay or Aliexpress, but from unfamiliar sellers.

    If a problem does occur and you paid for the purchase with a payment card, you can contact the bank and use the chargeback procedure. The procedure is described in the article:

To quickly and easily track your Russian Post parcel, enter the parcel's track number in the field above and BoxTracker will check your parcel and determine its location.

    How to find a parcel by Russian Post tracking number

    Russian Post parcels are located at postal number tracking. Domestic tracking numbers contain 14 digits, starting with the postal code of the sender or the department that issued the package. For example, if the parcel was sent from Moscow from the Russian Post office on Shelepikhinskaya Embankment with the index 123290, then the departure code will look like 12329000000000. International parcels processed by Russian Post can be tracked using a standardized 13-digit code typical of international shipments for postal services around the world. The first two letters indicate the type of item, then 9 unique digits of the item, and the last two letters indicate the sender's country code.

    Parcel tracking ZA..LV, ZA..HK

    This type of parcel differs from other international shipments in that these parcels are handled using a simplified system thanks to the cooperation of the Russian Post with the most popular online store for Russian citizens - Aliexpress. Thanks to this cooperation, the procedure for registering parcels with Aliexpress has been simplified, making shipment faster and cheaper. Such parcels have tracking codes like ZA000000000LV, ZA000000000HK.

    Parcel tracking ZJ..HK

    Parcels with a tracking code starting with ZJ are parcels of purchases made by Russians from the Joom online store. Just as in the case of Aliexpress, Joom entered into a partnership with Russian Post, thereby reducing the cost of delivering parcels from Joom, as well as significantly speeding up the shipping process itself from registration to delivery time.

    When tracking, Joom parcels can have one of three statuses:

    • Package sent
    • The parcel arrived at the office
    • The parcel has been received by the addressee
    Tracking parcels from China

    Postal parcels from China may not have complete information about the location of the parcel, however, the most important information you will have in your hands. The main stages of tracking will be available to you, and this is the most important thing. Parcels from China along their route pass through postal centers in Latvia and Hong Kong, which is why the letters LV and HK are assigned at the end of the track code, not CN.

    What to do if you can’t track your parcel?

    There may be several reasons why the track number may not be tracked. Most of these reasons are easily solvable, and sometimes do not require special solutions. The main reasons why a package is not tracked by track number:

  • Not enough time has passed since the parcel was sent and the number has not yet entered the database.
  • Sometimes it happens that the track number is not tracked until 10 days from the day the parcel was sent. The main thing here is to be patient and wait until the parcel begins to be tracked in the system.
  • In any case, you should not worry, although the reasons why the track code is not tracked are not limited to those listed, there is always a solution. As a rule, all parcels reach the addressee, and in extreme cases, you can always open a dispute in the online store and you will get your money back.

    How to track a Russian Post parcel

    Surely everyone has come across how mail works at least once in their life. Sometimes you never cease to be amazed at the speed and reliability, but there are also moments when the parcel is still not there. Parcel tracking will help you find out where the long-awaited cargo is.

    This is a mail utility that helps identify the location, as well as find out the path traveled. If you do not know how to track a parcel by number, Russian Post offers the following steps:

    Thus, just two simple steps will help solve the exciting issue.

    What to do if tracking of postal parcels of the Russian Post failed?

    • We have compiled a list of the most common cases in which this situation is possible, as well as tips for solving them.
    • 1. Too little time has passed. Postal workers sometimes simply do not have time to enter data into the database. It is also possible that the foreign parcel did not arrive in the country, therefore there is no information about it. We suggest you try again after a few days.
    • 2. Any of the characters entered are incorrect. First of all, you should check the entered number, whether all characters are indicated, and whether all letters are written in Latin letters. If the answer to at least one of these points is “yes,” then correct it and repeat the process.
