Understanding Tracking Milestones
Every international parcel follows the same general path: warehouse dispatch, origin export customs, airline departure, transit hub arrival, destination import customs, local distribution, and final delivery. The time between each milestone varies by line and season.
| Milestone | Typical Time | What It Means | Action Needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Label Created | Day 0 | Warehouse processed | None |
| Picked Up | Day 1-2 | Carrier collected | None |
| Origin Export | Day 2-4 | Left China | None |
| In Transit | Day 4-8 | Flying to destination | None |
| Customs | Day 8-12 | Being cleared | Wait 48h |
| Out for Delivery | Day 10-15 | Local courier | Be home |
Carrier-Specific Tracking Tips
DHL updates most frequently with GPS-level tracking. FedEx provides estimated delivery windows that are accurate within 24 hours. EMS updates at major hubs only — do not panic if you see no update for 5-7 days during transit. SF Express uses domestic Chinese tracking until the international handoff point.
- Sign up for SMS alerts on the carrier website — updates arrive faster than email.
- If tracking shows 'Customs Clearance Delay' for more than 5 days, contact your local customs office with the tracking number.
