Parcel statuses of Russian Post

Let's take a closer look at all the possible statuses of international parcels heading to Russia and delivered by Russian Post, so that it is easier for you to understand where the parcel is located and how long it will take.

Accepted at the post office

The sender filled out all the necessary forms, including the customs declaration, and the parcel was accepted by the postal or courier service. If this is the first status, then the shipment at this stage is assigned an identification number, which is subsequently used for tracking.

Track number assigned

Sender electronically I have reserved the internal number of the item at Russian Post and will soon transfer the item to the courier or to the post office.

Left the reception place what does it mean

This means that a domestic shipment within Russia or an international shipment from Russia was sent from the post office where the sender handed over the parcel to Russian Post.

Awaiting shipment from China, Singapore, Finland, Hong Kong, Spain

The post office of the country of departure notified the Russian Post about the incoming shipment. After the parcel leaves the country of departure, the next status will be Arrived in Russia

Arrived at the border of Germany, Italy, France, Spain

The parcel arrived at the export MMPO where the customs service checks the shipment for goods prohibited for shipment and prepares the shipment for shipment to Russia.

Exporting a shipment is one of the longest periods in parcel delivery. This is due to the fact that sending a partially loaded plane is unprofitable, so you have to wait until there is a sufficient number of parcels heading to one country.

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

Arrived in Russia

Indicates the import of a parcel to Russia. When a parcel is imported, it goes from the plane to the Russian AOPP (aviation mail transport department). Here the parcels are weighed, the integrity of the packaging is checked, the barcode is scanned to find out the place of departure, the flight number is recorded, and it is determined which MMPO the parcel should be sent to. The period of stay for an international shipment at the AOPC depends on the workload of the department, and on average it is 1-2 days.

In MMPO (place of international postal exchange) the parcel undergoes customs control and registration. After this, service employees prepare the international shipment for dispatch within Russia.

Reception at customs

The parcel is transferred to customs inspection, where it goes through an X-ray scanner. If customs officers suspect that prohibited substances or items are being transported, the shipment is opened and inspected in the presence of an inspector. After this (if the fact of transportation of prohibited goods has not been confirmed), the parcel is packed again, an inspection report is attached and sent further along the route.

Issued by customs

The parcel is released by the customs service and transferred to the place of international postal exchange, where it is processed by the department staff.

Detained by customs

This status is optional and appears only when customs officers detect a weight exceeding the permissible limit, 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 will be released from customs.

Arrived at 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 logistics service employees develop the optimal delivery route to the point of issue.

Sorting centers are huge premises in a large city into which parcels and letters are received for further distribution and sending to smaller points or regional post offices.

Sorting

Sorting center employees scan the barcode, register the item in the Russian Post system, then put it in a bag that travels to the desired city. Next, shipments are formed into containers, loaded and sent.

Transferred for delivery throughout Russia

Status means that the parcel has passed all import and customs control procedures and has been transferred to internal system delivery of items throughout Russia.

Arrived at the city sorting center

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 order delivery points. Delivery speed is affected by: traffic congestion, weather conditions, distance. For example, delivery within the city takes no more than 1-2 days, but within the region it can take about a week.

Arrived at the transit point

Optional status of the shipment, meaning that it has arrived at an intermediate transit warehouse, where the shipment will be grouped with other parcels and sent further to the post office nearest to you

Left the transit place

Optional shipment status. The item is still on its way to your post office

Left the return/delivery location

How to understand and what does this status mean? The package arrived at the wrong address or postal code and is now being sent to the correct address. Also, the parcel can be redirected at the request of the sender.

Registration completed

This means that the parcel has been checked at the transit point and will soon continue its journey to you.

What does Awaiting courier delivery mean?

This status means that the shipment has arrived at the post office that delivers EMS shipments, and is waiting for it to be loaded into the car and the courier will deliver the shipment in your city. The next status will be Handed over to the courier

EMS status Transferred to courier

This status means that the parcel is being delivered by courier and the parcel will soon be delivered to your home/office address

Handed over to the postman

A rather rare status, it means that the letter/parcel/small package is with the postman and he will deliver the item to your Mailbox.

Awaiting the addressee at the place of delivery/Arrived at the place of delivery

The shipment has arrived at your nearest post office. Within a few days, postal employees issue a receipt notice and deliver it to the recipient's mailbox. If you see this status, you don’t have to wait for a notification, but come to the post office with the shipment number and passport to receive the parcel.

If the addressee does not arrive within a week, a second notice is issued. A parcel that has been lying unclaimed for a month is sent back.

MMPO or Place of International Postal Exchange

What is MMPO? The abbreviation stands for “place of international postal exchange.” MMPO is the place where the parcel is prepared for shipment from the sender’s country. At MMPO, the parcel goes through export customs. MMPOs pack several parcels as one cargo, the so-called dispatch, to increase the efficiency of loading vehicles (trains, cars and airplanes).

Russian Post operates 13 customs clearance points for postal items. Until 2013, Moscow MMPO processed up to 80% of all incoming international shipments to Russia, which caused a large burden on Russian Post.

To speed up the delivery time for international parcels, Russian Post has opened two new International Postal Exchange Locations in Yekaterinburg and Novosibirsk. The latter can convert up to two thousand international EMS shipments daily, with an area of ​​more than 2000 square meters. The international postal exchange office "Ekaterinburg Koltsovo" is the first international postal exchange office in the Ural Federal District. It can handle up to 20,000 parcels and small packages per day in a 3,700 m facility.

By the end of 2014, Russian Post plans to reduce the share of the exchange office in Moscow to 55%. In addition, there are exchange offices in Bryansk, Samara, Orenburg, Petrozavodsk and Vladivostok.

What is AOPP?

AOPP is the place of international postal exchange of the aviation department of mail transportation

Records mention a messenger system in the 10th century AD. Early letters were sent on a roll with a wax or lead seal; the earliest of these seals dates from 1079 and mentions the governor Ratibor Tmutarakan. The earliest surviving letter was sent in 1391 from La Tana (now Azov) to Venice

How long does it take for a registered letter?

A very popular question - let's say right away that there is no exact answer to it. Delivery times for registered letters depend on many factors listed below:

• Distance between transportation points. The letter can be delivered within 24 hours after sending if we are talking about sending it within the same city. Sending a registered letter usually takes no more than 2 days within the cities-subjects of the Federation, or by the administrative centers of the district district. If the destinations are located at long distances (from 1000 km or more), it is more difficult to answer how long it takes ordered letter?
• Weather. Delivery times for registered letters (as well as any other RPO) of Russian Post are calculated based on average statistical data, which does not take into account possible deterioration of weather conditions. This is especially true in winter because... heavy snowfalls do not allow special mail transport to quickly cover the route.
• Possible mistakes when filling out a form or when transferring data to the pochta.ru database. We know of cases where mistakes were made by the sender or the postal worker. Most often they are associated with an incorrectly filled address or a postal code that does not correspond to it. IN similar cases registered mail may be sent via the wrong route.

You can find out the estimated delivery time for registered mail by calling hotline Russian Post ➤link to page with phone number. Or use the calculator for calculating delivery times for letters on a special page of the Russian Post website: ➤https://www.pochta.ru/letters. To find out how long a registered letter takes, enter the starting and final destinations, then the estimated weight of the letter or the number of sheets in it and the delivery method.

Russian Post - how to find out where the package is

One of the most proven and simple methods find out where your parcel is through Russian Post - this is tracking of postal items by item number.

To find out where this or that product is being shipped, recipients and senders need a bill of lading number or a tracking number, or a short TTN. The sender receives such data when registering documents at the branch. The declaration consists of 11 or 14 numbers, which are shown in the upper left corner of the document. These numbers are entered into the column called “Tracking Number”, and click “Track”. And within 2 minutes the exact location of the product of interest is known.

This is not possible when the transfer is sent from branches. Such branches are located in small towns and do not have their own base. This is the main reason that the shipment will take place in 2-3 days, and so will the registration.

Immediately after it gets to the department that has its own database, it will be registered. Only after completing this procedure is it assigned special number, and then it is allowed to find out the location.

Use our convenient tool and track the location of your mail.

International shipment tracking

International shipments are serviced by the Russian Post International group. A young service that tries to serve clients as comfortably as possible for each of them. When sending, the sender receives a tracking number. If available, they will know where the cargo is at any stage of delivery. Abroad, delivery from this company is carried out by courier into the hands of the addressee.

Everyone can try to use the international service and feel that the world is, in fact, much closer.

Which shipments can be tracked?

Modern senders send everything, literally. It could be:

• ordered letter;
• Appliances;
• products;
• furniture.

Even vehicles can be sent by Russian Post. But this is not the entire list of possible assortments. In addition, the person will have a declaration in his hands, with the help of which it is not a problem to find out the exact location of the cargo. And you can do this without leaving your home, as long as you have a computer and access to the Internet.

How to track a parcel by recipient's last name

You can receive and track it exclusively via TTN. We recommend checking the details with the sender. If this is not possible, and the express waybill number is lost, no need to worry! It is worth contacting the nearest department, where they will quickly restore the TTN number. To renew, a company employee will require a passport and phone number.
