When a track is assigned a parcel number. What is a track number. Strange postal services and services where it is difficult to track the package

When purchasing a product on the Chinese Aliexpress website, the buyer receives an identified number (track) for his purchase.

The track code is a combination of letters and numbers (CP271249340CN), which allows the client to receive complete information about the location of the parcel and see if the order has arrived at the desired post office. Information about the postal service, which is responsible for the delivery of goods, the buyer sees on the Aliexpress website in Russian and other languages.

Often, buyers want to know how to track a parcel from Aliexpress, and what difficulties may arise when receiving an order.

How to find out the track number of a parcel on Aliexpress?

After paying for the order, the site user has questions about where the parcel is, how to get a track number for tracking it, and in which section information about the purchased product is indicated.

You can find your tracking number in the "My Orders" section of the pop-up menu. Opposite the paid product with a notification that the order has been sent by the seller, there are 2 buttons: "Check tracking" and "Confirm receipt of goods".

You will need to move the cursor, click on the corresponding button, track the parcel using a universal number. You can select another required option (find out the name of the shipping company responsible for the delivery, or open a dispute with the seller).

Most often, buyers track and receive order data not only from Aliexpress, but also from the postal organization. This also requires the code, which is written in the lower left part of the screen when entering the section.

The track consists of numbers and 2 Latin letters at the beginning and end of the tracking combination: the main difference is in the code, type of shipment and country of delivery (to Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan).

It is important to note that the identification code is tracked and generated on the Aliexpress website according to the order number and according to the postal service. Therefore, it is possible to determine the track number of the order only 2-7 days after the purchase and the shipment of the goods by the seller.

There were times when, due to the insignificant dimensions and cost of the parcel, the track was not indicated on the site, the shipment was by plane (1 day), and after 2-5 days the buyer received a mail notification of the arrival of the goods at the destination.

What do typical track numbers look like from Aliexpress?

After payment, an order for Aliexpress is assigned a track code, which is formed depending on a number of factors.

Each organization indicates a special designation of the shipment: the first letters indicate the type of parcel, and the last - the sending country and the code of postal, courier services and logistics companies.

Examples of combinations and meanings of letters by which you can check goods on Aliexpress:

  • CP235611343CN - alphabetic characters inform about the departure of the parcel from the territory of the PRC;
  • RA142568564CN - RA and CN mean a small item was shipped from the same country;
  • RB389620335HK - small package from Hong Kong;
  • RT120896678HK - the parcel took off from Hong Kong by plane.

A typical track order code on Aliexpress complies with international rules and contains 2 letters, 9 numbers (identification number of the shipment) in the middle and 2 more alphabetic characters at the end of the number. At the same time, some countries have the right to use other principles for compiling the code.

The number can be without letters and consist of 11 or 12 digits. The first option means that the parcel was sent by China Post Ordinary Small Packet Plus, and tracking is possible only while the goods are in the PRC. A 12-digit track is generated when the order is processed by the SF-Express postal service.

Track number on Aliexpress can contain 2 letters and 14 numbers (LP12345678912345). This means that the parcel was sent by the Posti Finland Economy postal service and can only be tracked in the country of the sender. To obtain information about the further location, the client can use the universal service.

The seller provides information on the track code of the order on Aliexpress. It is necessary to copy this value correctly so that later there will be no problems with tracking the goods.

Track number decoding: what do the letters in the parcel tracking number mean?

It is not always clear from the long code combination how to check the location of the parcel, where to find your orders and whether you can find out about the type of their packaging. Therefore, it is worth considering decoding the track values.

The first letter in the universal code means the type of shipment and is deciphered as follows:

  • A - small-sized parcel without insurance;
  • R - registered shipment of small-sized goods weighing less than 2 kg;
  • V - a parcel weighing up to 2 kg, which has insurance coverage;
  • С - simple dispatch of an order weighing more than 2 kg;
  • L - airmail delivery (up to 2 kg);
  • E - express delivery of bulky goods.

The second letter of the universal number indicates the method of packing and transporting the order:

  • A, B - air transportation (up to 2 kg);
  • C - the parcel was sent by air, verification and registration will take a long time;
  • T - the envelope was sent by air;
  • R - delivery by sea or rail;
  • P (СР) - 1 class of dispatch from China.

The first 2 letters of the code with a series between EA-EZ mean that the parcel was sent via express service (EMS), will be delivered in a shorter time, and is available for tracking on the websites of postal organizations. The example code is EE123456789CN.

The EX-EZ letter combination is used for parcels that travel within the same country.

The CA-CZ series announces that the order has been dispatched via USPS Priority Mail and Parcel post.

LA-LZ - Sender is USPS First Class Mail, USPS Priority Flat rate Envelope or Exprès letter. The parcel cannot be tracked on the information resources of the senders.

RA-RZ Range - Uninsured shipment is available for tracking on the website and processed by Letter post registered.

The last 2 letters in the number notify the client about the sending country and the postal service unit (CN - China, HK - Hong Kong, SG - Singapore, US - USA, RU - Russia).

Detailed information on the location of the paid package can be obtained from the seller. However, you should always remember about the need to respect the interlocutors and not be alarmed ahead of time.

What do unusual track numbers look like on Aliexpress?

Often, buyers ask themselves how to track a purchase on Chinese marketplaces like Aliexpress, if the track code does not match the typical form, and the seller claims to have sent the order.

The client may be alerted by the following combinations of non-standard universal numbers:

  • combination of PK, SN or UA characters with 10 digits (UA1234567896);
  • UA, 9 digits and YP symbols.

Codes like these tell you that the movement of an order processed by China's internal service cannot be tracked outside of the sender's territory.

Track type RA00185233FI is generated when the parcel is processed by Itella (Finland). In this case, the client receives an order in a shorter time frame and has the ability to monitor the location of the goods through a universal tracker.

Websites for tracking parcels

Often people want to know how to track a parcel via Aliexpress if the seller has published a universal number.

You can track the parcel from China on the Aliexpress website in the My Orders tab. For more convenient and quick access to the menu, many buyers use the special Aliexpress Tool plugin.

Another way to see where the package is and when it arrives is the resource of the transport company. In most cases, tracking is carried out online, that is, the information is the most reliable.

Such a site is in the native language for the owners of the organization (Chinese, Finnish, rarely English) and is difficult for most buyers to understand. This is normal for international shipments. If you have a question about how to track your order on a foreign website, you can use online helpers.

The services Gdeposylka, 17track and Track24 are considered to be a good tool for tracking orders with Aliexpress.

Such specialized sites give the client the opportunity to visit the forum and discuss the topic of interest, familiarize himself with the rating of sellers, visit the index reference book, and obtain data in case of repeated orders. The buyer can use the option to notify the delivery time to his personal e-mail.

The ordered parcel, which must arrive by mail, on the territory of Russia or in an arc of the country is tracked on the services of the corresponding services (through the Russian Post or a mobile application, on the website of the Post of Ukraine, Post of Belarus, Post of Kazakhstan, etc.).

The resources contain information about where the parcel came from Aliexpress, the code, address and phone number of the post office.

Strange postal services and services where it is difficult to track the package

Low-cost orders that are sent by the following organizations are difficult to track:

  • Bao Tonga International (4 Latin alphabetic characters and 7 numbers);
  • 4PX-Parcel Special Line (DH451302856AE);
  • China Post Ordinary Small Packet Plus (11 numeric values);
  • Pos Malaysia (5 alphabetic characters and 8 numbers);
  • Xiang Feng Logistics (2 letters at the beginning, 11 numbers in the middle and 2 letters at the end);
  • Postal service 4PX Worldwide Express (MP52817120XSG);
  • SF-Express (12 digits);
  • 007EX, courier service (2 letters, 3 numbers, 2 letters and 13 numbers). Track example - RU007EX7511145258033;
  • SunYou or SYTrack (2 alpha characters, 11 digits). Example - SY48985925491;
  • Zes-express or Eshun - after sending from China, the parcels go to the Post offices or courier services SPSR.ru, SDEK.ru;
  • SunYou Economic Air Mail (2 letters and 14 numbers);
  • J-NET (5 letters, 10 numbers, 2 letters). Example - JNTCU0600782974YQ;
  • XINGYUAN (5 written characters, 10 numbers, 2 letters). Example - XYGPY8578047846YQ;
  • Cainiao (letter S and 12 numbers or 4 letter characters, 10 numbers, 2 letters and 1 number). Example - S008585685430 or AEWH0000056291RU2.

The difficulty lies in the atypical form of the track, and the inability to trace the parcel after its departure from China.

What if the track number from Aliexpress cannot be tracked?

Every buyer wants to know sooner about whether the parcel arrived and how long to wait for it... But sometimes the track code is not tracked. This happens for the following reasons:

  • less than 2 days have passed since the receipt of the track;
  • the client inattentively and with errors copies the universal number;
  • the seller provided a false code;
  • the buyer is using the wrong website to verify the whereabouts of the order.

If there are no indicated reasons, then the parcel can be tracked after direct contact with the seller.

It should be remembered that Aliexpress provides the client with transaction (order) protection, i.e. if the delivery time is violated by the sender, the buyer can open a dispute and return the funds for the purchased product.

Fake postal services for false tracking of parcels

When buying goods worth less than $ 10 for tracking parcels from China, Aliexpress can provide a non-working or someone else's track code, as well as a fake postal company number.

Such services provide information about the approximate location of the parcel, delivery times in Russia and the country of the sender, but most often they display false information.

List of fake services (Seller "s Shipping Method):

  • World-Shipping post (WS859632147CN);
  • WeDo Logistics (WD258963547CN);
  • HonkongExpressPost (RT859674258FI);
  • CNZExpress (S8596320);
  • Faspeed (RS023659874CN);
  • Flyt Express (A0001842048965AA).

If such a situation arises, do not worry in advance, since the paid product arrives at its destination without violations. If the parcel has not arrived by the expected time, then open a dispute with the seller. This will provide the details of the order.

There are times when it takes more time to wait for detailed information than just to receive the package.

To find out where your package or letter is, enter the track number on the website. You can also use the mobile application, and you will receive notifications about the movement of your parcels.

Where to find the track number

You receive a tracking number for tracking when sending a parcel, registered letter, registered parcel post or registered postcard - it is indicated on the receipt.

The track number of shipments within Russia consists of 14 digits. It is entered without spaces or parentheses.

Example: 35005145009747

If a parcel, letter or parcel was sent to you, you need to find out the track number for tracking from the sender (online stores usually indicate it on the order page). When placing orders, if possible, ask the seller to complete the registered item.

Tracking international shipments

The track number of international shipments consists of 13 characters, it uses Latin capital letters and numbers. It is also entered without spaces or parentheses. Example: CA123456789RU

According to the Technical Standard of the Universal Postal Union, only international registered mail items with track numbers starting with the letters R, C, E, V and L can be tracked.

A simple departure from abroad cannot be tracked in Russia - it is not registered in the postal information system.

The tracking service of Russian Post accepts most international track numbers. If the service does not accept your number, try to track the country of dispatch on the mail website.

International shipments can go through transit points (for example, a package from New York to Moscow can go through Berlin, which is displayed in the tracking system).

Tracker tracking issues

If there is no information on your track number, it is possible that too little time has passed since the moment of sending, and the information will soon appear. Please try again later. In order to receive up-to-date information on your parcel, register on the Russian Post website and subscribe to notifications using your track number.

If you do not have a tracking number, you will not be able to track the parcel or letter. The recipient's address and surname are not suitable for this. In this case, try to contact your post office: the package or letter may have already been delivered.

An online service for tracking mailings, the site will help you track the status and location of your parcel delivered by Russian Post.

The national postal operator of the Russian Federation "Russian Post" accepts, dispatches and delivers postal items on the territory of the Russian Federation and other states. In the branches of this national postal operator, the sending and receiving of both domestic and international parcels is processed. If the sending of parcels and postal items is made within Russia, then the parcel is assigned a unique 14-digit identifier number consisting of numbers, and for international sending, an identification number of 13 characters (numbers and letters of the Latin alphabet) is assigned.

Both numbers comply with the S10 standard of the Universal Postal Union and can be tracked by both the sender and the recipient of the mail item.

Features of tracking numbers of Russian Post parcels

The track number of the Russian Post differs in the types of parcels and differs in their appearance.

  1. Packages, registered letters and small parcels have a 14-digit number.
  2. Parcels and parcels are tracked using a 13-digit code (4 letters and 9 numbers).

Decoding:

    • The first 2 letters of the code are the type of shipment
    • 9 digits - departure code
    • The last 2 letters are the country of origin of the parcel
  1. EMS parcels - track number starts with letter E

Tracking parcels by type of shipment ZA..HK, ZA..LV (Aliexpress)

Thanks to the cooperation of the Russian Post, this type of parcels with Aliexpress is distinguished by a simplified registration system, which makes the shipment even faster and cheaper. It is worth considering that this type of delivery can only be tracked on the territory of the sender's country, when the parcel arrives at the territory, the shipment will no longer be tracked, but after the parcel arrives at the place of delivery of the recipient, a similar status will appear. The approximate delivery time is 25-30 days from the date of departure.

Tracking ZJ..HK (JOOM) packages, shipments and deliveries

Parcels with a number containing the letter ZJ at the beginning are parcels from the Joom online store, which also cooperates with the Russian Post. This type of delivery is budgetary, and is used mainly for the delivery of cheap goods and at the same time has limited tracking functionality. The fact is that Joom parcels, when tracked, can have one of only three statuses:

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

That is, it will not be possible to track your parcel at all stages of delivery, but important information that the goods have been sent or have already arrived at the post office will be known.

Problems with tracking parcels of Russian post?

Sometimes there are problems with tracking Russian Post parcels. Most often this happens for the following reasons:

  1. Not enough time has passed since the sending of the parcel and the tracking number has not yet managed to get into the database, as not enough time has passed since the moment of sending. It is worth remembering that the period can be up to 7-10 days.
  2. The sender provided an incorrect tracking number. In this case, it is worthwhile to check the number with the sender again and copy it correctly to the tracking line on our website.

How to track a parcel of Russian Post?

Tracking the status and location of a parcel by the postal company "Russian Post" is extremely simple: for this you need to enter a unique parcel track code in the tracking line. After specifying the number, click on the "Track" button and find out the most current information about the status of your shipment by Russian Post.

If you need to save data on several shipments by Russian Post at once, then register in the personal account of the online parcel tracking service website, and track several shipments at once and receive accurate information on each parcel.

In order to determine in which post office your parcel is located, use our

Aliexpress is gaining popularity among Russian buyers. This is not surprising: the site provides guarantees of receipt of goods and their good quality. And the prices of Chinese sellers are sometimes an order of magnitude lower than ours for the same product. There is only one inconvenience - long delivery. In this regard, there is a natural desire of the buyer to track the location and promotion of things for which he paid. Postal services provide such a chance.

The ability to track the track code will allow the addressee not to worry that his parcel will get lost, and if this happens, it will be faster to find it or receive compensation for the non-arrived product. In this case, you will lose time waiting, but get your money back.

How can I find out the track number of a parcel on Aliexpress?

A year or two ago, almost all packages from Aliexpress had a tracking number. This is a more expensive method of shipping for the sender, but the Chinese went to additional costs for the sake of peace of mind of buyers and maintaining their rating. Recent changes in the dollar exchange rate affected the services of logisticians. To keep products affordable for Russian consumers, despite the sharp drop in the value of the ruble, sellers have to cut prices and send orders in the cheapest ways, many of which do not imply traceability at all.

Will the package be tracked?

Honest sellers in the description of their goods say that it is impossible to check a parcel from Aliexpress using a track number if they work with carriers that do not provide such a service. Often having ordered and paid for an item, you can receive a message from the seller that he has sent (or is going to) it without a track number. The store owner will offer the buyer not to worry and wait patiently or pay another $ 2-3 for tracking delivery.

Where can I find the track number?

If your shipment has a combination of letters and numbers, then you can find it in the order card. This is the page that opens when you click on the "Details" link, opposite the name of the product you are interested in in the general list of shipments. This code can consist only of numbers or a combination of them with letters. The picture below shows how to find out the track number of a parcel to "Aliexpress" assigned to the parcel.

Honest sellers, having sent the package, immediately indicate this combination in the order card and insert a link to the website of the logistics company delivering it. There you can easily find out about the fate of your purchase. If, immediately after sending, the search by the track number fails, then this may mean that the information about the parcel has not yet been transferred to the company's information center. Or the product was never shipped, and the numbers were taken out of the head by a dishonest seller. A second check in a week and a half will clarify the situation.

The sales platform itself is created in such a way that the store representative cannot change the order status to "Sent" without marking the code. Even if tracking is not implied, and you were honestly warned about it, there will still be some numbers in the product card. They don't mean anything. Also, the seller may write you a deliberately incorrect code if he did not send the package when the allotted time expired, and is going to send it later. This is against the rules, but is widely practiced by shops. In this case, after the actual dispatch, the seller will write the correct number instead of the one invented.

International shipping marking standards

The numbers that are assigned to items have general international formation rules. So, parcels (weighing more than 2 kg) are marked with codes, the first 2 letters of which are CA-CZ. EMS tracking codes start with EA-EZ. If this is a registered custom package, then the first letters of its track number will be RA-RZ. Small mailings (SMOs) with a code starting with LA-LZ are not tracked at all.

The package is not found. What to do?

If you cannot track the parcel ("Aliexpress") by the track number, you should follow this algorithm.

  1. Wait. If after 10 days the number is not determined, go to step 2.
  2. Chat with the seller. Write to him about the situation. Add that the package is important to you or you are expecting it by a certain day, so you worry. Either the seller will give you a real number, or go to step 3.
  3. Threaten a dispute. If after this message there is no result either, go ahead.
  4. Open dispute. As a reason to note that it is impossible to track the parcel ("Aliexpress") by the track number. Claim full compensation.
  5. If the seller persists, inventing a lot of reasons not to return your money, exacerbate the dispute. The administration in most cases resolves such issues in favor of the buyer.

In other words, the development of events depends on a host of factors. Some sellers will instantly refund your money because they know they haven't sent you anything and don't see the point in doing the opposite. Others resist to the last, urging to wait a little longer. Here's how you decide. Some of the parcels that were not tracked at all arrive safe and sound. The rest do not exist in nature. If time is short, you can wait, but no longer than the maximum delivery time specified by the seller. Otherwise, you will be left without goods and without money.

Helper services

Imagining how to find out the track number of a parcel on Aliexpress, you can track it using various convenient services. These are the websites of carrier companies, and specialized programs, and even mobile applications. In real time, mail tracking is performed on them. "Aliexpress", due to its popularity, even became the reason for the emergence of several sites that specialize in parcels from China.

Post office

The Russian Post also has its own website where you can track the movement of cargo not only within the country, but also between states. It should be noted that on the website of this company only those international shipments are "caught" that consist of numbers and letters, and the first letters denote the category corresponding to international rules, and the last - the country from which the item was sent (most often in our case it will be CN).

Russian Post has mobile applications that work on the same principle as the site. They can be downloaded for free both for devices running on the Android operating system and for WinPhone.

The advantage of this service is that if it is indicated on the website or in the application that the parcel is in your post office, then it really is there. In addition, you can see other interesting statuses there. For example, "Unsuccessful delivery attempt" if the postman brought you a package and you were not at home.

Chinese postal sites

Sometimes when purchasing goods on "Aliexpress", delivery of which is free, and the price is low, the buyer receives from the seller a link to a Chinese tracking site and a digital code. There are several such resources on the Internet. And what unites these sites is that all instructions, menus and other fundamentally important things are written in Chinese. For those who do not speak the language, it is problematic to track their goods through such a service. An automatic translator does not always cope with its task. But such sites can show you that the package exists, if this is really the case.

These are the pages of courier services. These companies carry out delivery only within China, and when an order leaves the country, it is assigned an international standard number. Rarely does the seller himself inform the buyer that such a code has appeared on his parcel. If this information is important to you, write about it to the store owner. Then there is a better chance that the international number, when it is assigned to the shipment, will be brought to your attention.

Universal services

These are services for those who do not know exactly which company is delivering the package. Some of them are "sharpened" specifically for "Aliexpress". Delivery is tracked on several mail sites at once, which makes it more likely to find the package and get an idea of ​​its location.

Now on the "Aliexpress" website itself, in the "My Orders" section, you can see the shipment status updated every 5-10 days. The disadvantage of such tracking is irrelevance, since during such a period the parcel may repeatedly change its location, and the same item will be displayed on the page.

Way of parcel

In order to navigate the tracking process, you need to know which route each departure takes from point A to point B. In our case, this is from China to your city.

  1. "Received at Post Office, China." This means that the parcel lies where the sender brought it, and waits for it to be sorted.
  2. "Awaiting shipment from China." The package has been sorted and will hit the road shortly.
  3. "Arrived on the territory of Russia". The parcel is already in our country, here it was accepted and weighed.
  4. "Sent to customs." The consignment has been handed over to the appropriate organization.
  5. "Received for inspection at customs." All shipments go through this stage. If a specific package does not arouse suspicion among customs officers, then it is simply scanned and passed on. Otherwise, the parcel may be opened to make sure that there are no prohibited attachments in it.
  6. "Completed customs clearance."
  7. "Transferred for delivery across Russia."
  8. "Arrived at the sorting center". The name of your city is indicated here.
  9. "Left the sorting center."
  10. "Came to the place of delivery". Now you can come to your post office to pick up the package.

In conclusion, it should be said that you can buy on this site. Having an idea of ​​how to find out the track number of a parcel on Aliexpress, track it and what to do if the quality of the product does not correspond to the declared one, you will allow yourself to make a lot of useful purchases at nice prices.

When you first come across foreign shopping, you may not know what a track number is, what it means, what it shows and how much it is needed at all. It is especially difficult to deal with tracks when shopping on Aliexpress. However, it is important to understand in order to avoid losses, both direct material and loss of nerve cells (which is perhaps even more important than money).

Important note. The article deals with international tracks (international postal identifiers, IPI). The principle and idea of ​​tracks for local mail is the same, but the format of the tracks is different.

In today's article on the site, we will tell you:

  1. What is it and why is a track needed
  2. What are the tracks
  3. What is the difference between the track number and the order number on Aliexpress
  4. Where to find the track in your personal account on Aliexpress and iHerb
  5. What is track status
  6. Where to track tracks
  7. How often the status should be updated
  8. Why the track may not be tracked

Track number, tracking number, postal identifier is a unique set of letters and numbers assigned to your parcel by the postal or courier service when registering the delivery. By this identifier, the postal service can uniquely find out where and in what condition your parcel is. If the mail and courier company provides such a service, then you can find out this information by this identifier. Nowadays, this is usually done using sites or applications.

The package by which the track number is reported is called a registered mailing. There is a postal item that has not yet been registered, and no tracks are issued to the sender for it.

To some extent, the track can be compared to a license plate, passport number or birth certificate.

What are the tracks

During its, sometimes long, journey to the recipient, the parcel can be delivered by various services, companies or government post offices. In the most standard case, the parcel travels through the country of the sender by the state mail of this country (for example, China Post), and across the country of destination by its own state mail (for example, Russian Post). Sometimes this chain is longer.

International postal identifier

In order for the sender and the recipient, as well as the postal services, to know where the parcel is now, the tracks had to be standardized. Imagine if there was no standard, and the Chinese wrote tracks using hieroglyphs, and the Russians using the Cyrillic alphabet.

In order to prevent such misunderstandings from happening, an international postal identifier standard was developed. It is a set of two Latin letters at the beginning, 9 numbers and two Latin letters at the end.

Type CA123456780CN.

But these letters and numbers are not chosen from the lantern, but according to the standard. That is, it is not enough just to come up with any letters / numbers and this will already be the correct tracked track, no! You can read more about how an international track number should look like in.

According to the rules, the track must be unique for at least a year.

If you know the track number of your parcel and this track number is international, you can track the location and current status of your parcel at any time using the website of your state mail. There are also many other ways, but more on that below.

Non-international track

If the parcel was sent by such a company, then the company may issue the sender not an international track, which is tracked around the world, but its own internal one. The format of this track can be anything at all.

Fake track

Also, there is such a thing as a "fake track". It can be like a meaningless set of characters that is never tracked anywhere. So is a more complex scheme with the creation of sites for pseudo transport companies.

What is the difference between the track number and the order number on Aliexpress

The order number is just a set of numbers in your personal account. You cannot track the movement of a parcel using this number. Track is a PARCEL ID (parcel, small packet). The order number for Aliexpress and the track number are completely different things. Don't be confused.

How to find a track in your iHerb account

What is track status. What can he show.

During the movement of the parcel, it moves from one department to another, undergoes sorting, customs clearance, and the destination arrives. A lot can happen to her. All this information is reflected briefly in the form of the status of the package. You receive this information either in the personal account of the store, or when tracking on the mail site, or on the sites of services for tracking parcels.

Please note that track status and order status (especially on Aliexpress) are different things.

Where to track tracks

In the case of a purchase on Aliexpress, the track status, in most cases, can be tracked directly in your personal account. For international tracks, you can get information on the website of your state post office. Well, not international tracks can be tracked on aggregator sites. We analyzed these services in detail with links in the article about.

How often the track status should be updated

There are no rigid regulations. In addition, during the movement of a parcel by sea or by land over long distances (from one country to another), as well as during periods of excitement, the status can freeze for a long time. But in our experience, statuses on the international track rarely get stuck for periods longer than 2 weeks. More and more depends on what status everything has risen.

Why is the track not being tracked?

Perhaps you have a fake track. Or a non-international track, which was tracked only by the country of the sender (so often with the Chinese), after which it was sent to regular mail under a different track.

Is it worth tracking the track at all

Worth it, but without fanaticism. Check once a week - that's enough. In the case of Aliexpress, it is not necessary to check at all. Set yourself a reminder on the day before the expiration date and sleep well. The nerves will be more intact.
