Why is my Correos tracking not updating?

Gaps are normal between scan points — a parcel can sit at a sorting or customs facility for a day or more without a new event. International items often go quiet during the handover between the origin country's post and Correos. If there's been no movement for several business days after it reached Spain, it's worth contacting Correos with your number.

How long does Correos delivery take?

Domestic parcels within mainland Spain usually arrive in 2-5 business days, with premium and express options faster. The Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla can take longer. International delivery times vary widely depending on the origin country and customs, anywhere from under a week to several weeks.

My package is stuck in customs at Correos — what should I do?

Inbound international parcels are assessed for duties and VAT at a Correos customs facility. If charges apply, Correos will normally notify you to pay before it can be released and delivered, so check for a payment request by SMS, email, or letter. Once paid, it moves on to your local delivery office.

What does 'En proceso de entrega' or 'out for delivery' mean?

It means the parcel is on a delivery route and should arrive that day. If no one is home, Correos may leave a notice and hold it at a nearby post office, or attempt redelivery — the tracking will update with the next step.

Can I pick up my Correos parcel instead of waiting for delivery?

Yes. Correos often delivers to a post office or a Citypaq automated locker, and missed deliveries are usually held at a local office for collection. The tracking status and any delivery notice will tell you where and how long you have to pick it up.

Who is Correos Express and why is it tracking my order?

Correos Express is Correos's express courier subsidiary, used for faster domestic shipments. Some retailers ship via Correos Express rather than standard Correos, and it has its own tracking — Parceler can read both so you don't have to figure out which one your seller used.

How do I contact Correos about a delayed or lost parcel?

You can reach Correos through the customer support section on correos.es, by phone, or in person at any Correos office. Have your tracking number ready, since that's what they'll use to investigate. For lost or damaged items there's a formal claims (reclamaciones) process on their site.

Can I track a Correos parcel without using the Spanish website?

Yes — paste your Correos tracking number into Parceler and you'll get the same milestones in a clean, readable timeline, with no need to translate the correos.es interface or hunt for the right track box.

How do I track a parcel with Parceler?

Simply enter your tracking number in the search box at the top of this page, click "Track", then select your carrier from the popup. We'll display the full shipment history and current status instantly.

Why do I need to select a carrier manually?

Many carriers use overlapping tracking number formats, so automatic detection can lead to incorrect results. By letting you choose your carrier, we guarantee accurate tracking every single time. You'll find your carrier name on your shipment confirmation email or receipt.

Is Parceler free to use?

Yes! Basic parcel tracking on the web is completely free. Our iOS app is also free to download and use, with optional premium features available for power users who want advanced notifications and analytics.

Which carriers does Parceler support?

Parceler supports over 3,200 carriers including FedEx, UPS, DHL, USPS, Royal Mail, Bluedart, Delhivery, DTDC, Ekart, India Post, Aramex, and hundreds more from across Asia, Europe, Americas, and beyond.

Is the iOS app available on Android?

Currently, Parceler is available exclusively on iOS (iPhone and iPad). An Android version is in active development — sign up with your email to be notified when it launches.

How often is tracking information updated?

Tracking data is pulled directly from carrier systems in real-time whenever you refresh or check a shipment. For the iOS app, background refresh keeps your package list up-to-date automatically throughout the day.

What is the best app to track all my packages in one place?

Parceler is a free, all-in-one parcel tracking app that lets you follow every package from 3,200+ carriers worldwide in a single place — no need to visit each carrier's website. Just paste any tracking number to see real-time status, the full delivery timeline, and a unified map that stitches together carrier handoffs.

Can I track packages from all carriers in one app?

Yes. Parceler is a universal, multi-carrier tracker that supports over 3,200 couriers including FedEx, UPS, DHL, USPS, Royal Mail, Aramex, India Post, Delhivery, Bluedart and DTDC. Add as many shipments as you like and watch them all from one dashboard instead of juggling separate tracking sites.

Do I need an account or sign-up to track a package?

No. You can track any package on the Parceler website for free without creating an account — just enter your tracking number and pick your carrier. Signing up (or using the iOS app) is optional and only unlocks extras like saved shipments and push notifications.

Can I track international orders from Amazon, AliExpress, Temu or SHEIN?

Yes. Once your order ships, the confirmation email lists a tracking number and carrier — for example AliExpress and Temu often ship via Cainiao, and Amazon via Amazon Logistics or a local courier. Paste that number into Parceler to follow the parcel across borders, through customs, and all the way to your door.

Correos Tracking

Correos is Spain's national postal operator, and if you've bought something from a Spanish seller — or shopped on a marketplace that fulfils from Spain — there's a good chance your package travels its last leg with Correos. It handles everything from a simple letter to international eCommerce parcels clearing Spanish customs. Drop your Correos tracking number into Parceler to follow the journey without bouncing between sites.

Universal service to every address — both domestic mail and parcels handed over from foreign posts.

About Correos

Correos (full name Sociedad Estatal Correos y Telégrafos) is the state-owned postal company of Spain, with roots going back centuries to the Spanish royal mail. Today it runs one of the densest delivery networks in the country, reaching every Spanish municipality including the Balearic and Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla, through thousands of post offices and a fleet of carriers. Alongside the letter post that it's historically known for, Correos has grown into a major parcel and eCommerce player, partly through its Correos Express subsidiary for faster domestic shipping.

For most recipients, a Correos parcel either originates inside Spain or arrives from abroad through the international postal system (often via another country's post office, then handed to Correos for the final mile). Inbound international items pass through a Correos exchange and customs-processing facility, where any duties or VAT are assessed, before being routed to a local delivery office and out to your address or a nearby Correos pickup point.

Correos tracking number format: Correos tracking numbers commonly follow the universal UPU format: two letters indicating the service, nine digits, and ES for Spain (e.g. RR123456785ES or LX987654321ES). Domestic and eCommerce shipments may instead use a longer numeric reference.

How national post moves a parcel

What to expect from a postal delivery

National posts run the widest delivery network in their country, which shapes both the speed and the tracking detail you see.

Delivery to every address

Universal-service rules mean the post reaches addresses private couriers often skip — rural routes, PO boxes, islands.

Inbound international handoff

Parcels from abroad are passed to the local post for the last leg, so tracking can switch carriers at the border.

Economy timelines

Standard and economy postal classes trade speed for cost, so gaps between scans are common and usually fine.

Collection options

Missed deliveries are typically held at a local post office or collection point for pickup with ID.

Correos services

The shipping options you'll most often see on Correos parcels.

Domestic parcel delivery (Paquete)

Standard and premium parcel options within Spain, from economical Paq Estándar to faster Paq Premium with day-defined delivery.

International shipping

Outbound and inbound cross-border parcels through the global postal network, including registered and tracked international services to and from Spain.

Correos Express

The group's express courier arm for time-sensitive domestic deliveries, including next-day and same-day options in major Spanish cities.

eCommerce and returns

Delivery to home, to Correos offices, or to Citypaq automated lockers, plus integrated returns solutions for online stores.

Registered mail and letters

Traditional postal services including certified (certificado) letters and documents with tracking and proof of delivery.

Customs and international clearance

Processing of inbound international parcels through Correos customs facilities, including duty and VAT collection before final delivery.

Two ways to track Correos

Either method works. Parceler is faster when you order from multiple carriers and want one timeline for everything.

Option A · Carrier site

Track on Correos.com

1. Find your tracking number — it's usually in your order confirmation or shipping email from the seller, or on the receipt if you posted the item yourself.
2. Go to correos.es (you can switch the site to English from the language selector if needed).
3. Locate the tracking box labelled 'Localizador / Seguimiento' on the homepage and enter your number.
4. Press the search button to see the latest status and the chain of scan events for your shipment.
5. If you'd rather not navigate the Spanish site, paste the same number into Parceler to get a unified, plain-language timeline.
6. For inbound international items, watch for a customs-processing status — that's often where the longest waits happen.

Option B · Parceler (recommended)

Track on Parceler

1. Paste your Correos number above. No sign-up.
2. Parceler auto-detects the carrier — no dropdown to pick from.
3. See every scan event, location, and timestamp on a single timeline.
4. Optionally subscribe to push or email alerts for status changes.

Side by side

Parceler vs. Correos's native tracking

The carrier's own site shows the data they own. Parceler unifies every leg — including the partner handoff at the border — and adds tools the carrier doesn't.

FAQ

Correos tracking — questions answered

International items typically use the UPU style: two letters, nine digits, then ES for Spain, such as RR123456785ES. Domestic parcels and eCommerce orders can use a longer all-numeric reference instead. If your number ends in ES, it's almost certainly a Correos or Correos-handled international shipment.
