The fate of postal items can now be traced via the Internet. Information about the passage of a parcel can be obtained directly on the website of a specific postal service, on the website of postal services, via RSS, e-mail or even SMS (depending on the tracking service provider), as well as using a special program. Services for determining the location of the parcel are free - having paid for the shipment, the sender pays for the "additional service" for tracking the shipment.
Instructions
Step 1
Each postal item is assigned a unique number during registration (postal identifier, tracking number, air waybill, tracking number). This number is intended for tracking RPO - registered postal items, which include parcels. The identifier is contained on the check, which is issued to the sender upon receipt of the parcel at the post office. For postal items sent by Russian Post within the country, the tracking number consists of 14 digits, for international items it is 13-digit and is a combination of numbers and Latin letters.
Step 2
To track a parcel, parcel post or registered letter sent through the "Russian Post", go to the official website of the company www.pochta.ru. On the main page of the site you will see the "Track" button, under which there is a window for entering the tracking number. The second option is to go directly to the parcel tracking section page at www.pochta.ru/tracking.
Step 3
Find the postal identifier on the check and enter it in the appropriate window of the site (input is carried out without brackets, spaces and other additional characters - only numbers). In a few seconds, a table will be displayed on the screen, which will indicate the status and current location of your mail item, as well as the dates and times of all operations already performed with it - receiving from the sender at the department, sending and arriving at sorting points, and so on. All actions are subject to registration, from the delivery of the parcel to the post office and ending with its delivery to the recipient.
Step 4
If you often use the services of the Russian Post, sending or receiving registered items, you can register on the website of the postal operator. Then you do not have to re-enter RPO numbers every time - they will be saved on the site. In addition, if you wish, you can use the notification service about the change in the status of the parcel - every time new data about the postal item appears in the system, a corresponding notification will be sent to the e-mail.
Step 5
Sites of other postal services work in the same way: to determine the location of the parcel in the section on tracking shipments, a track number is entered, after which the history of operations is displayed. Please note that when entering international numbers, you must use the Latin keyboard layout and enter letters in uppercase or in the “all uppercase” mode.
Step 6
Links to the pages of the tracking section of several popular postal services:
DHL
EMS Russian Post
FedEx
UPS
Step 7
If you constantly track parcels, letters and parcels sent by different postal operators from different countries, you can use not "branded" portals, but sites that allow you to get information about the movement of RPO sent by different services on one page. Services such as https://edost.ru/tracking.php or https://www.track-trace.com/ allow you to track the status of delivery by the invoice number at once a number of mail services, including the above.
Step 8
Another convenient way to track the movement of postal items is to register on the Gdeposylka.ru website - https://gdeposylka.ru/. After completing the registration procedure, you will be able to track RPO sent by the postal services of the USA, China, Hong Kong, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, as well as partially Germany, Great Britain, Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, Poland, Thailand, Austria, France, Korea. The route of the postal item is displayed on a special map. You can track parcels in different ways. Email and RSS alerts are free of charge. A paid service is also available for sending SMS notifications about a change in the status of a mail item.
Step 9
To track RPO, you can also download a special program Track my Packade https://www.trackmypackage.ru/. The program provides an opportunity to receive information about the USPS RPO, HK Post, Singapore Post, China Post, Royal Mail, EMS and Russian Post mailings with minimal effort. The program is free. She "goes" to the sites of postal services, remembers the delivery status of postal items and provides information in a convenient form. On one screen, you can see information about the delivery history of all your mailings at the same time and make predictions about the new delivery date.
Step 10
Tracking postal items usually allows you to receive data on the location of the parcel "in real time". However, in practice, information about the status of a postal item does not always appear at the time of its registration at the post office - slight delays are possible. Therefore, if you correctly entered the tracking number of the just sent parcel, but the system “does not see” your parcel, just repeat the request a little later. If several days have passed since the moment of sending, and there is no information in the system, or if the status of the parcel does not change for a long time, you need to contact the post office and write an application for search. This must be done by the sender - until the moment of delivery, it is he who is legally considered the owner of the parcel.
