Awaiting delivery to the post office. Parcel status. Postal statuses of parcels when tracking. Problems of tracking Russian mail parcels

Delivery to the addressee

Delivery to the recipient

Means the actual receipt of the mailing by the recipient specified in the mailing.

Flew to destination country

The postal item will be transferred to the post office of the country of destination, for delivery to one of the places of international mail exchange, and subsequent import / export operations.

Departed from the airport

The following status will not be displayed immediately upon arrival at the airport of the destination country, but after the mail item arrives and is accepted (unloaded, processed and scanned) by the postal service.
This may take from 3 to 10 days.

The postal item departed from the airport of the sender's country and is sent to the country of destination.

After the parcel leaves the territory of the sender's country and arrives at the destination country, such shipments are re-marked with untraceable track codes and are no longer tracked.

When the parcel arrives at your post office, you will receive a paper notice with which you must come to the post office and receive the parcel.

Issued by customs

The customs clearance procedure has been completed, in the near future the postal item will be transferred to the post office of the country of destination for further delivery to the recipient.

Ready for shipment

Ready to ship

Means that the postal item is packed, marked and will be sent in the near future.

Detained by customs

This operation means that the postal item is detained by the FCS employees to carry out activities to determine the destination of the postal item. Upon receipt by international postal items within a calendar month of goods, the customs value of which exceeds 1000 euros, and (or) the total weight of which exceeds 31 kilograms, in terms of such excess, it is necessary to pay customs duties, taxes using a single rate of 30% of the customs value of goods , but not less than 4 euros per 1 kilogram of their weight. If information about the goods sent to the IGO is missing or does not correspond to the actual, this significantly increases the time spent on clearance of shipments, since it becomes necessary to conduct customs inspection and document its results.

Sending

The parcel was sent to the wrong index or address, an error was found and the parcel was redirected to the correct address.

International mail import

The operation of receiving a shipment in the country of the recipient.

All mail arriving on the territory of the Russian Federation from flights begins its journey at the aviation mail transportation department (AOPP) - a special postal warehouse at the airport. From the aircraft, within 4-6 hours, the shipments arrive at the AOPP, the containers are registered, their integrity and weight are checked. Mail is registered in an electronic database. During registration, a barcode is scanned, data is entered about where the container is addressed (for example, MMPO Moscow), from which flight it arrived, about the country and date of formation of the container, etc. The time of these operations can be increased from 1 to 7x days due to the limited capacity of AOPP.

The next operation after exporting from the country of origin, which is reflected on the site when tracking the shipment, is import to the country of destination. Import information appears after the shipment has been handed over by the carrier to the postal operator of the country of destination. The operation "Import" means that the shipment arrived on the territory of Russia and was registered. International shipments arrive in Russia through the place of international postal exchange (IMPO). There are several MMPOs in Russia: in Moscow, Novosibirsk, Orenburg, Samara, Petrozavodsk, St. Petersburg, Kaliningrad, Bryansk. The choice of the city where the international shipment will go depends on the country of the sender. The choice depends on the availability of regular flights and free carrying capacity in a particular direction.

Unsuccessful attempt of delivery

Assigned if the postal operator reported that an attempt was made to deliver the item to the recipient, but for some reason the delivery did not take place. This status does not reflect the specific reason for non-delivery.

Transportation of a postal item from one sorting center to another, in the direction of the recipient. On average, the export operation takes from 7 to 14 days, but sometimes this operation can take up to 60 days.

Export (content check)

The postal item was transferred to the customs service of the sending state for inspection and other customs procedures. If the parcel passes the customs check successfully, then it will be sent to the country of destination.

On average, the export operation takes from 7 to 14 days, but sometimes this operation can take up to 60 days.

If the shipment is in the "Export" status, then it is impossible to track it (find out what exactly is happening with it), only at the import stage you will be able to see your parcel and monitor its further movement. The use of transit traffic and certain restrictions often delay departures. However, if your parcel was sent more than 3 months ago, but has not received the status of "Import", then the sender needs to contact the post office and apply for a search.

Export, processing

Means the actual sending of the postal item to the country of destination.

The "Export" status includes the transfer of the parcel to a foreign carrier, which, by land or air transportation, transports it to the MMPO of the country of destination. As a rule, this status is the longest and the transition to "Import" may take some time. This is due to the peculiarities of the routes of flights and the formation of the optimal weight for transporting it by plane. For example, shipments from China may be delayed due to the fact that cargo planes can carry at least 50 - 100 tons.
On average, the export operation takes from 7 to 14 days, but sometimes this operation can take up to 60 days.

Electronic mail registration

The online mail tracking service site will help you track the status and location of your parcel delivered by the Russian Post.

The national postal operator of the Russian Federation "Post of Russia" receives, sends and delivers postal items on the territory of the Russian Federation and other states. In the branches of this national postal operator, the dispatch and receipt of both domestic and international parcels are processed. If parcels and postal items are sent within Russia, then the parcel is assigned a unique 14-digit identification number consisting of numbers, and for international shipments, 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 both the sender and the recipient of the postal item can track the parcel on them.

Features of Russian Post parcel tracking numbers

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

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

Decryption:

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

Parcel tracking by type of shipment ZA..HK,ZA..LV (Aliexpress)

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

ZJ..HK parcel tracking (JOOM)

Parcels with a number containing the letters 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 during tracking can have one of only three statuses:

Package sent
Parcel arrived at the branch
Parcel received by addressee

That is, your parcel cannot be tracked 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 of tracking Russian mail parcels?

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

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

How to track a parcel of the Russian Post?

Tracking the status and location of a parcel by the Russian Post is extremely simple: to do this, you need to enter a unique track code for the parcel in the tracking line. After specifying the number, click on the "Track" button and find out the most up-to-date 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 your personal account of the online parcel tracking service website, and track several shipments at once and get accurate information on each parcel.

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

Many people order goods with free shipping from China and by chance use the exotic services of such Asian mail as China Post Air Mail, Hong Kong Post, Singapore Post, etc., where often stores and sellers provide a track code (tracking number) by which you can track the parcel and more or less predict when it will fucking arrive. The postal statuses of China's mail are essentially a Chinese letter and a mere mortal is unlikely to figure out how to decipher it all. To do this, below I will try to explain what the statuses in China post mean, which you see when tracking a parcel by track number.

Tracking statuses of a parcel from China (statuses of postal items - China)

Status collection收寄局收寄 or Acceptance (Acceptance) - means that the parcel has arrived at the China Post.
Status Opening出口总包互封开拆 (The parcel arrived at the transit point) - this status means that it arrived at the transit point (nothing to do with opening or opening the parcel)
Status Dispatching出口总包互封封发 (Arrival at MMPO, Processing) - the parcel is sent from one transit point to another
Status Departure from outward office of exchange出口总包直封封发 (Export, Total Export) - the actual sending of a postal item outside of China, that is, the parcel flew out of China and after some time will arrive in the country of the recipient of the parcel. But the nuance is that such a status can be repeated many times until the parcel is actually loaded and sent.
Status NULL交航 - no exact information, most often means that the parcel has passed customs and left China, in rare cases it may mean that it has been returned to the sender.
Status: The item is pre-advised- means that the track number was ordered/purchased electronically (online pre-order), and the parcel has not yet been given away, that is, it has not arrived at the post office (the sender has not yet brought the parcel to the post office and it has not been sent).

Parcel type status Russian Federation: Unknown attribute when tracking a parcel from Aliexpress, this is just the most common status that could not be automatically translated into English or Russian. To understand where the package is and what is happening with the package, track without translation so that the statuses are displayed in Chinese (for example) and then insert these hieroglyphs into Google translator and translate into English, then you will get a normal status with an adequate translation. In short, this is just an error in the translation of the status of the package, and everything is fine with the package itself, so don't worry ..

There are also three-letter designations (Loacation), these are airport codes, often this CAN(Guangzhou), PEK (Beijing) or PVG(Shanghai), although there are others .. To decrypt them, enter in the browser http://www.flightstats.com/go/Airport/airportDetails.do?airportCode=ABC where instead of ABC enter your 3-character code or the second method, go to the IATA website (international aviation office) http://www.iata.org/publications/Pages/code-search.aspx and in the middle of the site you will see a search form, where in the drop-down list select Location code, and in the empty field enter your three-digit code and click on the Search button, in general, as in the picture:

Parcel statuses in destination country

Upon arrival in the country of destination (for example, Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine), the statuses of the parcels are more clear. By the way, sometimes the package does not immediately reach your city or locality, but goes in transit through other cities, in the same way, when sent from China, the package can even go through neighboring countries, so you should not panic or worry, everything is fine, this is mail. So let's look at the typical statuses of parcels upon arrival in the country of destination, for most countries everything is about the same:

Import(Import) - the parcel has arrived (arrived) in the country of destination, it is being processed for transfer to customs.
Reception at customs– is being transferred to customs for clearance.
Customs clearance. Customs Release– the parcel has passed all the necessary customs clearance and is being prepared for release from the sorting point MMPO(Site of the International Moal Exchange)
Left the place of international exchange MMPO- the parcel left customs and was handed over to the post office for further dispatch.
Left sorting center- the parcel is sorted and sent to its destination.
Came to the place of delivery- the parcel has arrived at the post office, which means that the parcel has arrived at your local post office and you can already go to receive it even without notification, or you can wait for a notification (usually they bring it to the mailbox, the one in your mailbox).
Delivery to the addressee(Product Delivered) - the package has already been delivered to the recipient, the receipt of the package is confirmed by the recipient.

Problematic and unpleasant parcel statuses

Above, we described the standard statuses of parcels, they mean that the parcel is on the way and goes (eats, flies, floats) to the recipient. It happens that the package can loop or get stuck on one status, the statuses can be repeated, sometimes it can skip some statuses, this is normal and in most cases everything comes fine (sometimes with delays). But there are statuses that make you worry and mean problems:

Return. Other circumstances- this status means that something is wrong with your parcel. And it is returned to the sender. What is wrong can be found out by calling the mail hotline or your local post office and indicating the track number (tracking number), they will tell you what needs to be done and possible reasons for returning the parcel.
Return. return customs- this status means that at the customs stage, your parcel was turned back, most often if the address is written illegibly or some prohibited goods in the parcel (for example, spy stuff or something from the prohibited list), this status can also be if customs clearance was required, and the recipient refused to pay and clear the parcel.
Unsuccessful attempt of delivery- this status is most often accompanied by a clarification about the reasons for the failure. This may be Incorrect (incorrect) address, Inaccurate address, Incomplete address, Recipient dropped out, etc. In such a situation, it is important to have time to pick up the parcel from the post office before the parcel storage time has expired (depending on your country, this is at least 5 and no more than 30 days, you can check this at your mail). Sometimes it happens that the postal code is incorrectly indicated and the parcel arrived, but not to your post office, but to some neighboring one (call the post office, tell them the track number and they will tell you which address to pick up the parcel). Sometimes if you don’t pick up the parcel on the first day, then such a status may also appear, so perhaps the mail notification is already lying in your mailbox.
Return. Shelf life expired- most likely you forgot or did not have time to receive the package on time and it was returned back to the sender.
Sending Sending- most likely the parcel arrived at the wrong post office and was redirected to another. Do not worry, this is not a problem and means that the package is moving on, but we recommend that you control this process and this situation, and then ask what the problem was so that all your subsequent packages go without such delays and nuances.

Deliveries are now in high demand. After all, people are increasingly using online services, in particular, ordering various kinds of goods on Internet sites, among which Aliexpress has become the most popular. At the same time, many people prefer to carry out tracking on their own throughout the entire stage of cargo transportation.

And this is very correct, because thanks to this option you will be able to find out in time what delays occur, what procedures and points, verification stages are being carried out or will only be carried out.

In general, thanks to tracking, you can get detailed information about the delivery. However, to do this, you need to know what the tracking statuses mean. Only their correct understanding will allow you to benefit from tracking.

With international deliveries, you can often meet with the status "Export from the country of departure." Many customers of courier services are interested in what this phrase means. We will consider its meaning in the framework of this article. However, first you need to understand what the export of international mail itself means.

Export is

The word "export" itself comes from the Latin exporto. The same word, in turn, has the meaning of "export of goods and services from the country's port", if we talk about its literal meaning. Buyers of these same services and goods will call the country an importer. That is, when tracking a package, it is important to correctly understand the statuses:

Export - this means that something has gone beyond the borders of the country.
Import - this means that something, on the contrary, arrived in the country.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated here.

The meaning of the status Exported from the country of departure

This status is second in order. It is exhibited at the stage of delivery, when the goods are exported outside the country of origin. You can also understand the message in this way: there is still time before the goods are received.

To make it easier, consider an example: Ivan bought headphones from Aliexpress and ordered delivery. The product is in China, and it needs to be delivered to Russia. When Ivan sees “Export from the country of origin” when tracking, this means that the headphones were taken out of China.

In order not to be mistaken in the estimated delivery time of the parcel, you should know what this or that status means. On this page, we will consider in detail all possible statuses so that you do not experience difficulties in determining the location of the package.

Postal statuses when tracking shipments from abroad

Reception.

This status implies that the sender has completed all the required forms, including the CN22 or CN23 form (customs declaration), and the parcel has been accepted by the postal or courier service. Simultaneously with the receipt of the shipment, an identification number is assigned, according to which tracking takes place in the future.

Arrival at MMPO.

MMPO is a place of international mail exchange. At this stage, the parcel goes through customs control and registration. After that, the service employees prepare a grouped international shipment.

Export.

One of the longest periods in the delivery of postal items. This is due to the fact that it is unprofitable to send a partially loaded aircraft, so you have to wait until a sufficient number of parcels are sent to one country.

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

It is impossible to name the exact duration of the parcel's stay in export. But on average, it ranges from two weeks to one and a half months. Moreover, on the eve of the holidays, this period may further increase. But if more than two months have passed since the receipt of the "Export" status, and there are no changes, you should contact the postal service that performs the delivery with a statement about the search for the item.

Import.

This status is assigned to a shipment in the Russian AOPP (Aviation Mail Transportation Department), where it enters from the aircraft. Here, according to the service regulations, parcels are weighed, the integrity of the package is checked, a barcode is scanned to find out the place of departure, the flight number is fixed, and it is determined to which MMPO the parcel should be sent. The time it takes for an international shipment to be in AOPP depends on the degree of workload of the branch and its employees, but on average it is 1-2 days.

handed over to customs.

After sorting, the parcels are sent for customs inspection, where they pass through an X-ray scanner. In the event that customs officials have suspicions about the illegal transportation of prohibited substances or items, the shipment is opened and examined in the presence of an inspector and a responsible operator. After that (if the fact of transportation of prohibited goods was not confirmed), the parcel is packed again, an inspection report is attached and sent along the route.

Delayed by customs.

This status is optional. It is assigned to a shipment only in cases where customs officers detect a weight exceeding the allowable norm, a value of more than 1,000 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 bypasses this status.

Customs clearance completed.

After receiving this status, the parcel is again transferred to the place of international postal exchange, where it is processed by the branch staff. In some cases, this status may be replaced by “left MMPO”.

Arrived at the sorting center.

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

Left the sorting center.

This status means that the parcel went along the delivery route. The time it takes for it to arrive at the recipient depends on several factors, including traffic congestion, remoteness of the region, etc.

There are sorting centers of the Russian Post in all major cities.

Arrived at Sort Facility N.

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

Came to the place of delivery.

After the shipment arrives at the nearest post office, it is assigned this status. Further, postal employees are required to issue a notice and deliver it to the addressee within 1-2 days. In fact, this period may be slightly delayed, so it is better to use the My Parcel tracking service. As soon as you see the status "arrived at the place of delivery", you can go to the post office. It is not necessary to wait for a notification, since postal employees are required to issue a shipment using an identification code (tracking number). Upon receipt, you must have a passport with you.

Delivery to the addressee.

This status is assigned to the parcel after it is received by the addressee and means the end of the journey.

Domestic Russian shipments are assigned the same statuses, with the exception of those related to the customs stage and MMPO. Therefore, the information will also be useful to those who make purchases in Russian online stores or expect a package from loved ones living in another city or region.

Now you know the interpretation of each status and you can not only determine the actual location of the parcel, but also roughly calculate the delivery time.
