More and more people decide to buy goods from Chinese sites that are much cheaper than in our own countries.

However, many who order for the first time do not know how to check where the package is currently located, since it takes a long time to arrive. Tracking shipments is an important phase in online shopping, especially since the package arrives from distant parts of the world.

What tracking number codes are there?

Some sites have their own built-in shipment tracking system and are located somewhere on the site, most often somewhere near the order page. The tracking code is usually either the order number or some of them generated in their database. DX.com is an example of one such site (more details later).

And some sites offer a tracking code that can be of a general format and can be tracked anywhere in the world, or some local that can only be tracked until the package leaves the country from which it is sent.

Some companies have their own personal tracking codes which contain more information, but such codes are tracked on the official website and they are not the subject of this article, e.g. UPS, DHL and the like.

Where to find China Post tracking code of your order?

the tracking code is mostly found in the order details on the site where you purchased the product. Sometimes the Tracking Code is the order number itself. If «Tracking code / number:» is not written somewhere in the order information, then the order number itself is probably the tracking code.

1) If the site has its own tracking system, find that page and enter the code. Example at DX.com:

The order page contains the order number, which is the tracking code.
The order can be tracked at this link: https://my.dx.com/order-tracking
You can also see the status of the shipment on the order page itself
If not, then you can try other sites that are used for that, which will be discussed below.

2) If the site offers a tracking code, you can find it in the order. Example for Aliexpress:

The code can be of a general format, as an example in the picture above, or a local code that is somewhat different, there are no letters in it but only numbers. You can follow such codes of general format as in the pictures on the site of our post office – posta.rs, not all the others, at least I didn’t succeed.

Where to track the package number codes?

The most popular and best site I have come across is Caniao.com because it has a really large database of courier services. The site itself is nicely done, there is even an application for phones.

It is very easy to use, has a lot of options, and clear results. I will not explain how it is used because everything is understandable at first glance, and if someone is still interested in the details, they can find everything about this service here: TRACK CHINA POST

If no service can find the code in the database, then see if there is a link in the order information that leads to the site to track that shipment. Often the seller offers a Chinese site, but we usually can’t track the shipment after it leaves China.

Note: sometimes codes are not inserted into the tracking database on that day, sometimes waiting is 5 to 7 days. If even after 10 days the code is not found in the database, you can just wait for the package. If the package does not arrive, you have the right to request another or a refund, but all this is relative from site to site.

Your purchase in Chinese Marketplace will be shipping through the Yanwen service to the U.S.

So, how long you will wait for delivery?, Shipments from China via this service are usually waited for 4-20 days and there is no reason to worry if the shipment is a little late, as this is one of the most popular post offices in China and they are very busy.

Due to the new coronavirus, some airlines that transport shipments from the United States to China, but also in the opposite direction, have temporarily stopped their flights, so the citizens of the region receive the goods they ordered online with a delay.

Buying products from China online through the Ali Express and Alibaba sites is becoming increasingly popular in the United States, so due to the stopped air traffic these days, many are wondering if they will get what they ordered.

However, as explained, this does not mean that shipments whose contents were purchased on Aliexpress will not reach the recipient.

Large e-shops have long had their branches in other parts of the world. So, even though the goods were ordered on Aliexpres, it does not mean that they “come” from China.

As the corona virus subsides, we expect that deliveries from China will normalize and that packages will arrive in 7 days, as it used to be.

Most sellers offer their customers several delivery method options, and one of them is AliExpress standard delivery. If you choose this method of delivery, then the seller from whom you bought the product will send the package to AliExpress delivery center, and from there your delivery will be sent to your location using one of the logistics providers with which AliEspress has a partnership.

These logistics providers are different post offices in countries and delivery companies that offer their delivery services to get your order on time. Currently. In addition to these providers, there are «Singapore Post», «DHL», «Posti Finland», «Correis» and others. The biggest advantage of this delivery method is that in most cases your product will be delivered free of charge, and you can usually follow the delivery process using the code provided by the seller.

How long does it take to receive my order?

Delivery time mainly depends on the delivery method used to ship your product and where you live. Since most of AliExpress’s sellers are located in Asia, it will take a little more time for deliveries to reach other continents. Usually the delivery time is displayed on the product page under the Delivery method menu, which is exactly correct in most cases, if you have chosen the right country at the top of the page. But there can always be delays due to various holidays or other reasons.

Why can’t I get free shipping?

As with delivery locations, the cost of delivery and services used to deliver products depends on the product vendor, as AliExpress generally only provides a delivery platform to both buyers and sellers. Therefore, if the seller does not offer you free delivery, you must contact the seller directly and inquire about it.

You ordered a shipment from China via Yanwen shipping and now are you wondering how long will you wait until the goods arrive in the UK? In this article we will reveal to you.

Yanwen paid services usually deliver your package directly to your home address and, depending on the region, the waiting time is 4 to 20 days. More often it will be 15-20 days, but don’t be surprised if the shipment arrives in just 4-5 days.

The problem that can delay the Yanwen delivery of goods is when the goods arrive in the UK and then go to customs. It is known that imported goods are cleared through customs in different ways depending on the category: catalog goods, international delivery, fast delivery goods. If you fit the duty free standard then there will be no problem and your goods will soon be at your door.

For the declaration of shopping in China it is now necessary to present: a copy of the passport with registration, the order form and a photograph of the goods, the original bank account statement indicating the online store as the recipient, a copy of the bank card.

Documents Each consignment must be accompanied by a consignment note stating the names, addresses and telephone numbers of the consignor and the consignee, with a list of contents and an indication of the declared value.
Return packages. Theoretically, there are the following options for your actions if you want to return a package: paid (at your expense) forwarding with a new record number and filling the package and returning to the specified Chinese sender address with the same record number.In practice, everything is completely individual and is decided by opening a dispute and negotiating with the seller. Sometimes it is easier to claim a partial refund without sending the goods. The main thing is to open the dispute in time and correctly state the reason, claims as well as the necessary demands. After all, the return of the shipment is paid by the buyer, and this cost may exceed the price of the product itself. You can read about how to open a dispute properly in my next article.

On the other hand, your Yanwen shipment can be automatically returned to the sender (at his expense) if it is not received in the mail.

The shelf life of international shipments is 1 month. So keep this in mind if, for example, you can’t get to the post office right after receiving a notification. Please note, by the way, that you can send instead of yourself to receive a shipment from your legal representative.

The Yanwen projected delivery time to UK is shown in the code information below your order that you track using the tracking number.
