The ability to order goods by mail or through online stores creates a lot of convenience for the buyer. However, having ordered and paid for the desired item via the Internet, you often have to wait for a very long time for your parcel, which goes by regular mail. This is especially true for international shipments that have to cross several borders and go through customs. In this situation, it is very important to be able to track your package at every stage of its movement.
Instructions
Step 1
Fortunately, almost all postal services today have their own services on the Internet, so it is quite easy to control the location of your parcel. The main thing that you need for this is a unique identification number of the mail item or, as it is often called, tracking (from the English tracking).
Step 2
After receiving the tracking of your parcel from the postal service, first of all, find the website of the postal service of the country where you made the order. For example, if your package comes from the United States, use the official website of the US government post - usps.com. Go to his page https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction and enter the tracking number in the window that opens under the words Track & Confirm, then click the Find button. You will receive information about the movement of your order within the United States. Parcels sent from Germany, you can check through the website of the postal service of this country: https://www.deutschepost.de/sendungsstatus/bzl/sendung/simpleQuery.html?locale=de&init=true, and the UK post office can be found at
Step 3
After the parcel has crossed the borders of the Russian Federation, it is more convenient to track its movements through the website of the Russian postal service www.russianpost.ru. Go to the page https://www.russianpost.ru/rp/servise/ru/home/postuslug/trackingpo and enter the number in the "Postal identifier" window. You will receive data on when the parcel crossed the border, passed customs and where it was sent after it.
Step 4
It is equally convenient to track international parcels through international tracking sites. For example, try the popular www.track-trace.com service. On its main page, select the postal service through which your order was sent and enter the tracking number in the corresponding line. You will receive information about all movements of your shipment.
Step 5
In some cases, foreign senders may not report the tracking number itself, that is, not the international number of the postal item, but only the receipt number that was assigned at the time of sending. In this case, go to the website of the postal service through which the parcel was sent, and enter the receipt number as an identifier. This number will be valid during the entire time of movement of the parcel within the sending country. When passing through customs, your parcel will be assigned a new international number - tracking. After receiving it, use one of the international tracking sites to further track your shipment.
