Postal transfer EMS. EMS tracking

EMS seems to be the most popular international delivery service, which guarantees its customers fast and reliable delivery of goods. Tracking EMS mail is a highly sought-after feature among consumers using the services of this company. After all, it allows you to quickly determine the status of the parcel and calculate the approximate time of its receipt.

What is an identifier/track code

Before you learn how to track an EMS parcel, it is important to define the basic concepts. In order to systematize and simplify tracking of the shipment, a special unique code is used, assigned at the time of sending the parcel. It is drawn up in the form provided for in the regulations of the “Universal Postal Union” and consists of 13 letters and numbers.

Track code - unique parcel code

If you want to find a parcel by shipment number, it is important to take into account that each symbol serves to reflect specific information that allows you to receive necessary information about her.

The first letter reflects the type of parcel, and the second letter indicates the sending method. The last two are an abbreviation for the country from which such a parcel was sent.

Among the most common types of shipments, it is advisable to include:

  • WITH- standard shipment, the weight of which exceeds 2 kg;
  • R– a letter whose weight does not exceed 2 kg, in respect of which registration actions are being carried out;
  • L– standard letter, as well as its express equivalent. If an identifier begins with this character, it cannot be tracked except for "LM";
  • E– express delivery EMS, the second letter in this case is considered sequential;
  • V- insured letter;
  • A– an uninsured letter that cannot be tracked.

In addition, for tracking by identifier, a Russian tracking number, denoted by the abbreviation RPO, is often used. It is a 14-digit number and must be indicated on the receipt received upon receipt of the parcel.

Features of EMS work

Despite the fact that this service guarantees fast delivery to the recipient’s door, malfunctions and various problems often arise in its operation. In particular, if the parcel is moved across the territory of the Russian Federation, then the delivery time will be about 10 days. If you need to receive it from another state, you should not expect it earlier than 15-35 days from the date of departure.

In addition, there are several other important features EMS:

  1. You can find a parcel using Russian services only after registering the parcel in the Russian Federation.
  2. The service rules provide for the possibility of express delivery, however, this should be agreed upon in advance with the seller.
  3. The weight of the postal item that is planned to be delivered in this way must be no more than 31 kg.

The EMS service ensures delivery of the parcel to the recipient's door

Naturally, the accelerated version of the shipment has a higher price, however, the delivery time will be much shorter than with the standard algorithm.

The service rules stipulate that the recipient cannot open the parcel in front of the courier in order to check the presence of all goods being sent. In order to ensure availability, you must personally visit the nearest post office and open the parcel in the presence of employees of this institution.

Package tracking

The most interesting stage seems to be the parcel tracking procedure. The identifier required for this is issued to the client after full payment for the purchased product. What type of code he will receive depends on the type of shipment. If delivery will be made from another country, the consumer receives an international code consisting of letters and numbers. When sending within the Russian Federation, the code will contain only numbers (RPO).

Tracking a shipment by invoice number, as in other cases, can be implemented in several stages:

  1. Monitor the parcel on foreign services (for international delivery).
  2. After registering a parcel on the territory of the Russian Federation, you can check its status using local trackers.
  3. Receive the parcel and check the integrity of the goods being sent.

All tracking portals work according to the same algorithm of actions, which involves going to a page for entering data, searching and receiving necessary information by parcel. However, in the case of international shipments, at first it can only be tracked on the corresponding website of the sending country. For USA, similar portal located at www.usps.com.

Tracking international parcels using the track-trace.com service

There are also universal solutions, allowing you to obtain information about the status of international EMS parcels, regardless of the state from which they are sent. Such tools include track-trace.com, which has a simple algorithm of use:

  • visit the site;
  • open the “Post/EMS” section;
  • You will need to enter an identifier in the empty field that appears, and then click “Find”.

As a result, the user will receive complete information about the status of the order, including its current location. This will allow you to control the movement international shipments even in cases where they have not yet left the sending country.

Using domestic EMS service

A subsidiary of this company in the Russian Federation is EMS Russian Post, which controls Russian Post. It is not surprising that when using the official website of the emspost ru company to track a parcel, it immediately redirects the visitor to the Post portal www.pochta.ru/tracking.

Tracking your parcel on the Russian Post website

Here, as in a similar case, you will need to enter the data necessary for tracking (international identifier or RPO), and then click the search button. Some online stores provide the ability to track shipments directly in your personal account, which eliminates the need to visit the Russian Post website.

It must be remembered that data on international shipments will appear in Russian services only after successful completion registration. However, even parcels from the territory of the Russian Federation may not be displayed in the official service within 24 hours, despite the correct entry of the RPO.

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

Try it, it's not difficult ;)

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

If there are any difficulties with the statuses on English language, click on the link with the text “Translate into Russian”, which is located under the tracking statuses.

Carefully read the "Track Code Information" block, there you will find estimated delivery times and other useful information.

If, when 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 block "Pay Attention!" it is written that the track code is not tracked in the destination country, in this case, tracking the parcel becomes impossible after the parcel is sent to the destination country / after arriving at the Moscow Distribution Center / Item Arrived at Pulkovo / Arrived in 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. No, and nowhere. Not at all =)
In this case, you need to wait for a notification from your post office.

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

If the seller promised that the parcel would arrive in two weeks, but the parcel takes more than two weeks, this is normal, the sellers are interested in sales, and that’s why 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 that he sent the parcel, and the status of the parcel “the item pre-advised” / “Email notification received” does not change for several days, this is normal, You can read more by following the link: .

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

If your previous orders arrived in 2-3 weeks, and the new parcel takes more than a month, this is normal, because... parcels go on different routes, different ways, they can wait 1 day for shipment by plane, or maybe a week.

If the parcel has 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 is delivering the parcel from one city to your home. In order for it to appear new status, the package 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 Reception / Export / Import / Arrived at the place of delivery, etc., you can look at the breakdown of the main statuses of international mail:

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

If, based on the above, you do not understand anything, read these instructions again, and again, until you are completely clear;)

Russian Post tracks shipments using 14-digit slate tracking codes for domestic parcels and 13-digit codes for international parcels. 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 a parcel was sent from Moscow from the Russian Post office on Shelepikhinskaya Embankment with an index of 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 for 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 with 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, 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 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:

  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 parcel begins to be tracked in the system.
  2. The tracking number is incorrect. In this case, you need to check the tracking number again with the seller or sender. Also check that the number is spelled correctly. You may have made a mistake when copying or typing a number on the keyboard.

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.
