Frequently asked questions
What does a Albania postal tracking number look like?
International postal items use the 13-character UPU S10 format: two letters for the service, eight digits, a check digit and the country code of the sending post: AL for Albania. Example: RR123456785AL.
My parcel was sent from abroad. Which post should I use?
Use the post of the country at the end of the number first. Once the item reaches Albania, the destination post usually shows the same number, so you can also check it there.
Why is there no update for several days?
International mail is scanned when it leaves the origin post, at the international exchange office and again after customs in the destination country. Long gaps between these scans are normal, especially for economy mail.
Why do EMS numbers open a different site?
EMS items (numbers starting with E) are tracked on the EMS network tracker, which has the most complete EMS data. Other mail is tracked on postashqiptare.al.
Why do I have to paste the number again?
The tracking site on postashqiptare.al does not accept tracking numbers in the link, so we open the search page and you paste your number there. We show the number so you can copy it in one click.
Is this the official postal website?
No. TrackandTrace.com is an independent tracking directory; the tracking result comes from postashqiptare.al.
