By sending a letter, you entrust its delivery to the postal service. Alas, it happens that letters do not find their addressee. How can you track the path and fate of the lost letter? If it was sent as registered or with a declared value, there is no particular difficulty in finding, since such letters are strictly controlled.
It is necessary
receipt or check of payment of the letter
Instructions
Step 1
Forwarded registered postal items - registered letters or letters with declared value - are assigned a unique postal identifier (special number). It is registered in the mail database and printed on the receipt or check of payment that is issued to the customer. Thanks to this, the passage of your letter is easy to track.
Step 2
To find a lost letter, go to the post office where you sent it, or any other post office and ask about the fate of your letter. You need to take a check with you, which contains the postal identifier. Using it, the postal staff will quickly find your letter, since at each stage of sending the postal identifier is entered into the unified accounting and control system of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise "Russian Post".
Step 3
Modern computer technology has made finding information even easier. On a special service of the Russian Post, you can find out the fate of the letter yourself - has it been delivered to the addressee or not? To do this, go to the service https://www.russianpost.ru/rp/servise/ru/home/postuslug/trackingpo and enter the postal identifier. It must be entered without parentheses or spaces.
Step 4
Please note that internal Russian postal correspondence is assigned a 14-digit numeric identifier, which contains the post office index, its service number, receipt number and check number. To track international mail, enter the 13-digit number, consisting of 4 letters and 9 numbers, printed on the receipt. Enter letters in capital letters and in the Latin alphabet, and the entire number without spaces.
Step 5
If you want to be sure that your important correspondence will not get lost on the road, arrange it as ordered or with a declared value. In this case, you should be given a receipt with an identifier by mail. For the service, of course, you will have to pay a little, but you will be much calmer.
Step 6
The situation is more complicated with simple unregistered letters. It is almost impossible to find them, since the mail is not responsible for sending ordinary letters. And although the probability of the loss of such a letter along the delivery route is zero, it may well be lost in the mailbox itself, that is, outside the area of responsibility of the postal department. Registered letters are handed over against the receipt of the recipient.
