Tracking overseas parcels. Universal tracking of parcels

To track your parcel, you need to take a few simple steps.
1. Go to the home page
2. Enter the track code in the field with the heading "Track mailing"
3. Click on the "Track parcel" button located to the right of the field.
4. After a few seconds, the tracking result is displayed.
5. Study the result, and especially carefully the last status.
6. The predicted delivery period, displayed in the track code information.

Try it, it's not difficult;)

If you do not understand the movement between postal companies, click on the link with the text "Group by company", which is located under the tracking statuses.

If you have any difficulties with statuses in English, click on the link with the text "Translate into Russian", which is located under the tracking statuses.

Carefully read the section "Information about the track code", there you will find approximate delivery times and other useful information.

If, during tracking, a block is displayed in a red frame with the heading "Pay Attention!", Carefully read everything that is written in it.

In these information blocks, you will find 90% of the answers to all your questions.

If in the "Pay Attention!" it is written that the track code is not tracked in the country of destination, in this case, tracking the parcel becomes impossible after the parcel is sent to the country of destination / after arriving at Moscow Distribution Center / Item Arrived at Pulkovo / Arrived at Pulkovo / Left Luxembourg / Left Helsinki / Sending to the Russian Federation or after a long pause of 1 - 2 weeks, it is impossible to track the location of the parcel. Nothing, and nowhere. No way at all =)
In this case, you need to wait for a notification from your post office.

To calculate the delivery time in Russia (for example, after export, from Moscow to your city), use the "Delivery Control Time Calculator"

If the seller promised that the package will arrive in two weeks, and the package travels for more than two weeks, this is normal, the sellers are interested in sales, and therefore they are misleading.

If less than 7 - 14 days have passed since the receipt of the track code, and the parcel is not tracked, or the seller claims to have sent the parcel, and the status of the parcel "the item pre-advised" / "Received email notification" does not change for several days, this is normal, you can read more by clicking on the link:.

If the status of a postal item does not change for 7 - 20 days, do not worry, this is normal for international postal items.

If your previous orders arrived in 2-3 weeks, and a new package has been traveling for more than a month, this is normal, because parcels go by different routes, in different ways, they can wait for sending by plane for 1 day, or maybe a week.

If the parcel left the sorting center, customs, intermediate point and there are no new statuses within 7 - 20 days, do not worry, the parcel is not a courier who carries the parcel from one city to your home. In order for a new status to appear, the parcel must arrive, unload, scan, etc. at the next sorting point or post office, and this takes much more time than just getting from one city to another.

If you do not understand the meaning of such statuses as Acceptance / Export / Import / Arrived at the place of delivery, etc., you can see the decoding of the main statuses of international mail:

If, 5 days before the end of the protection period, the parcel is not delivered to your post office, you have the right to open a dispute.

If, based on the above, you do not understand anything, read this instruction again, and again, until you are completely enlightened;)

Russian Post history

On June 28, 2002, by a decision of the Government of the Russian Federation, a new concept was adopted for restructuring the postal system at the federal level. This concept involved the unification of all post offices in the country into one organization, for centralized control and distribution of resources. The enterprise is state-owned and controlled at the federal level.

Over time, the range of activities of the Russian Post has been supplemented by retail trade, the federal money transfer service, express delivery by EMS, photo printing and many other services.

Tracking of Russian Post parcels

The parcel tracking system "Russian Post" allows all clients of this company to check the postal status online. The system quickly generates data and provides all available information about the parcel and where it is at the moment.

Tracking numbers of Russian Post parcels

Tracking codes for Russian Post parcels differ in type and may have a different look.

  1. Packages, small parcels and registered letters are tracked using a 14-digit number.
  2. Parcels and parcels are assigned a special code that consists of 4 letters and 9 numbers:
    • The first 2 letters indicate the type of shipment
    • 9 digits - unique departure code
    • The last 2 letters represent the country from which the package was sent
  3. EMS parcels - international express delivery of items. The tracking number for EMS parcels is the same as for regular international parcels, except for the fact that the code starts with the letter E

Examples of parcel tracking numbers:

  • 14568859621458 - internal parcel tracking code
  • CQ --- US (CQ123456785US) - package or small shipment from the USA, postal packet
  • RA --- CN (RA123456785CN) - parcel from China
  • RJ --- GB (RJ123456785GB) - package from Great Britain
  • RA --- RU (RA123456785RU) - if the parcel was not registered before it entered the territory of the Russian Federation, the Russian Post may assign an internal tracking number.

Tracking numbers of the Russian Post are compiled in accordance with the international standard S10, allowing both the sender and the recipient to track parcels, and the introduction of an electronic tracking system for Russian mail mails makes this even easier.

How to track a parcel of Russian Post?

  1. You must use the tracking number of the Russian Post to find out information about the estimated time of arrival and other details. This is a special tracking code that is unique to any package. It must be provided to you by the sender (online store, company or individual).

Russian Post tracking

Russian Post tracks both parcels sent within the Russian Federation and international shipments, including express mail EMS. Domestic shipments of the Russian Post are tracked using a 14-digit track code, the first six digits mean the postal code of the sender. International shipments of Russian Post begin and end with 2 letters, the first two mean the type of parcel, and the last two - the country of the sender.

How to track a parcel on the territory of Russia?

It is quite simple to track the parcel of the Russian Post on the territory of the Russian Federation. In order to start tracking the parcel, you need to have the parcel's tracking code on hand. Russian Post tracks shipments using 14-digit slate tracking codes for domestic parcels and 13-digit codes for international shipments. For a quick and easy tracking of 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 tracking number of Russian Post

Parcels of the Russian Post are located by the postal tracking number. Tracking numbers for domestic shipments contain 14 digits, starting with the postal code of the sender or branch that issued the parcel. 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 the Russian Post can be tracked by a standardized 13-digit code, typical for international mail for postal services around the world. The first two letters indicate the type of shipment, then 9 unique digits of the shipment, and the last two letters indicate the country code of the sender.

Tracking ZA..LV, ZA..HK packages, shipments and deliveries

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

Tracking ZJ..HK packages, shipments and deliveries

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

Tracking Joom parcels can have one of three statuses:

  • Package sent
  • The parcel arrived at the department
  • The parcel has been received by the addressee

Tracking packages from China

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

What to do if you cannot trace the parcel?

There can be several reasons why the track number may not be tracked. Most of these reasons are easily resolved, and sometimes they do not need a special solution. The main reasons why the package is not tracked by track number:

  1. 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 package begins to be traced in the system.
  2. Tracking number is incorrect. In this case, it is necessary to clarify the track number again with the seller or the sender. Also check the spelling of the number. You may have made a mistake while copying or typing a number on the keyboard.

In any case, do 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 be refunded the money spent.

Russian Post is the national state postal operator of Russia, a full member of the Universal Postal Union, providing domestic and international postal services. Carries out reception, dispatch and receipt of postal items: parcels, small packages, parcels and correspondence; provides financial and delivery services to both individuals and businesses.

Russian and foreign online stores often send orders to customers just by this postal service or integrate with its delivery to provide high-quality and inexpensive services. For example, on the basis of post offices, it organized express delivery and points of issue of orders, reducing the time for issuing orders in Russia to 2-5 days. Several shipping companies are combining their freight capabilities with the vast resources of the national postal operator. So recently I created a joint project with the Russian Post "Rural Delivery" for delivery to remote points, regional and regional centers of Russia, where there are no own branches.

According to the press center, in the 1st quarter of 2018, the Russian Post processed 95.7 million international mail, and more than 60% of Internet buyers used delivery services. In 2018, the second stage of a sorting center will be built in Vnukovo, and in 3 years the network of logistics centers will be expanded throughout the country. According to forecasts of e-commerce experts, the growth of international inbound shipments will continue, mainly due to parcels from China.

Active promotion in the Russian-speaking market of such large Chinese stores as Banggood, as well as rapidly gaining popularity new players, and significantly increased the flow of incoming mail. Nevertheless, the Russian Post continues to provide high-quality services for the delivery of parcels, both international and domestic.

Tracking of parcels in Russia

When registering, a postal item is assigned a tracking number, with which you can track when it was sent, the stages of movement and the date of receipt at the post office. The tracking service allows you to control the receipt of the shipment and is especially useful in resolving disputes with the seller in the event of inconsistencies. The name and address of the recipient will help to make sure that the parcel is on its way, and the weight of the shipment will help you to approximately estimate the contents of the attachment. The last delivery status will inform the sender of the successful delivery of the goods.

In addition to simple letters, all other shipments within Russia always go as registered. Incoming international letters and small packages can be sent as unregistered too. In these cases, it remains only to rely on the decency of the sender or seller and on the absence of various excesses. If the parcel is lost or not sent without proof of non-receipt, neither the postal services nor the sellers will refund money for the goods and shipping.

Tracking data can also help you in filing claims for non-compliance with delivery deadlines. The Russian Post website directly states responsibility for violation of these deadlines.

Tracking a parcel of the Russian Post by identification number

The barcode postal identifier (SPI) for domestic items of the Russian Post consists of 14 digits, where:

  • the first six digits indicate the recipient's post office code,
  • the next two digits indicate the month when the barcode identifier was printed,
  • digits from ninth to thirteenth - unique number of the item,
  • and the last digit is the check.

After paying for the shipment service, the cashier will issue a fiscal receipt, in which, in addition to the standard cost and the name of the services, the RPO number (registered mail item) will be indicated, this is the tracking number - the postal identifier of the Russian Post. In the RPO line, the last digit in the check is printed with a space, but you need to enter it without spaces.

It looks like this on the cashier's receipt:

RPO tracking is instant - upon receipt, the post office employee enters the information into the database, and the first status "Accepted at the post office" will appear when tracking the Russian Post by identifier immediately after sending. Postal identifier is a great tool for tracking movement, delivery times and weight at every stage of a shipment being delivered.

Tracking of the Russian Post by the number of international shipment

For international mailings, the regulations of the Universal Postal Union approved a single track code standard. The type of mail item is determined by the first two Latin letters, the next nine digits in the track number consist of a unique eight-digit number and the last check digit. The last two Latin letters in the tracking number indicate the country of departure. It is impossible to determine the country of destination by track number.

Examples of departure numbers:

  • CQ --- US (CQ123456785US) - package from the USA,
  • RA --- CN (RA123456785CN) - small package from China,
  • RJ --- GB (RJ123456785GB) - departure from the UK,
  • RA --- RU (RA123456785RU) - internal number assigned to unregistered parcels upon arrival in Russia.

Statuses of the Russian Post courier

Let's take a closer look at all the possible statuses of international parcels going to Russia and delivered by Russian Post, so that it is easier for you to understand where the parcel is and how long it will take.

Accepted at the post office

The sender filled in all the necessary forms, including the customs declaration, and the parcel was accepted by the postal or courier service officer. If this is the first status, then the shipment at this stage is assigned an identification number, by which further tracking takes place.

Track number assigned

The sender electronically reserved the internal number of the shipment at the Russian Post and will soon transfer the shipment to the courier or to the post office.

Left the place of reception what does it mean

It means that the domestic shipment within Russia or the international shipment from Russia was sent from the post office in which the sender handed over the parcel to the Russian Post.

Awaiting shipment from China, Singapore, Finland, Hong Kong, Spain

The post of the country of origin notified the Russian Post of the incoming shipment. After the parcel leaves the country of departure, the next status will be Arrived in Russia

Arrived at the border of Germany, Italy, France, Spain

The parcel arrived at the export MMPO, where the customs service checks the shipment for goods prohibited for shipment and prepares the shipment for shipment to Russia.

The export of a shipment is one of the longest periods in the delivery of parcels. This is due to the fact that it is unprofitable to send a partially loaded plane, so you have to wait until there are enough parcels going to one country.

In addition, to optimize logistics processes, shipments can be delivered in transit through other countries, and this also delays delivery time.

Arrived on the territory of Russia

Means the import of the parcel to Russia. When you import a parcel, it goes from the plane to the Russian AOPP (Aviation Mail Transportation Department). Here the parcels are weighed, the integrity of the packaging is checked, the barcode is scanned to find out the place of departure, the flight number is recorded, and it is determined to which MMPO the parcel should be sent. The duration of an international shipment at AOPP depends on the degree of workload of the department, and on average it is 1-2 days.

In MMPO (place of international postal exchange), the parcel undergoes customs control and registration. After that, the service employees prepare an international shipment for shipment within Russia.

Reception at customs

The package has been transferred to customs inspection, where it goes through an X-ray scanner. If the customs officers have suspicions about the transport of prohibited substances or items, the shipment is opened and inspected in the presence of an inspector. After that (if the fact of transportation of prohibited goods is not confirmed), the parcel is packed again, the inspection certificate is attached and sent further along the route.

Issued by customs

The parcel is released by the customs service and transferred to the place of international postal exchange, where it is processed by the employees of the department.

Detained by customs

This status is optional and appears only when customs officers detect a weight that is in excess of the permissible norm, a value of more than 1000 euros, and other violations. In this case, the recipient will have to pay additional fees. If there are no violations of customs legislation, the parcel will be released from customs.

Arrived at the sorting center

From MMPO, the shipment goes for sorting. There are postal sorting centers in all major cities. As a rule, the parcel is sent to the center closest to MMPO, where the logistics service employees develop the optimal delivery route to the point of issue.

Sorting centers are huge premises in a large city, into which parcels and letters fall for their further distribution and dispatch to smaller points or to regional post offices.

Sorting

The employees of the sorting center scan the barcode, register the shipment in the Russian Post system, then put it in a bag, which goes to the desired city. Further, the formation of shipments into containers, loading and dispatching.

Transferred for delivery within Russia

The status means that the parcel has passed all the import and customs control procedures and has been transferred to the internal delivery system for shipments in Russia.

Arrived at Sort City Center

Upon arrival in the recipient's city, the package is delivered to the local sorting center. From here, goods are distributed to post offices or other pick-up points. Delivery speed is influenced by: traffic congestion, weather conditions, distance. For example, delivery within the city takes no more than 1-2 days, and in the region, the shipment can be delivered for about a week.

Optional shipment status, meaning that it arrived at an intermediate transit warehouse, where the shipment will be grouped with other parcels and sent further to the nearest post office

EMS status Transferred to courier

This status means that the parcel is on delivery by courier and the parcel will soon be delivered to the address of your home / office.

Transferred to the postman

A rather rare status, it means that the letter / parcel / small package is at the postman and he will deliver the item to your mailbox.

If you see this status, then you can not wait for the notification, but come to the post office with the departure number and passport to receive the parcel.

If the addressee does not arrive within a week, a repeated notification is issued. The package, which has been unclaimed for a month, is sent back.

IMPO or Place of International Postal Exchange

What is MMPO? The abbreviation stands for “place of international postal exchange”. MMPO is the place where the parcel is prepared for shipment from the sender's country. At MMPO, the parcel goes through export customs. MMPO packs several parcels as one cargo, the so-called dispatch, to increase the efficiency of loading vehicles (trains, cars and airplanes).

Russian Post operates 13 points of customs clearance of postal items. Until 2013, Moscow MMPO handled up to 80% of all incoming international traffic to Russia, which caused a heavy load on the Russian Post.

To speed up the delivery time for international parcels, Russian Post has opened two new International Postal Exchange Locations in Yekaterinburg and Novosibirsk. The latter can handle up to two thousand international EMS shipments daily, with an area of ​​over 2000 square meters. The international postal exchange office "Yekaterinburg Koltsovo" is the first international postal exchange in the Ural Federal District. It can handle up to 20,000 parcels and small packages per day at a 3,700m facility.

By the end of 2014, Russian Post plans to reduce the share of the exchange office in Moscow to 55%. In addition, there are exchange offices in Bryansk, Samara, Orenburg, Petrozavodsk and Vladivostok.
