Frequently asked questions
Where can I find my Canada Post tracking number?
It is printed on your booking receipt or shipping label, and is usually included in the order confirmation email or SMS from the seller.
Why isn't my Canada Post tracking updating?
New shipments often take 24–48 hours to show their first scan, and parcels can go without scans while travelling between hubs. If nothing changes for several days, contact Canada Post directly.
Is this the official Canada Post website?
No. This is an independent tracking portal. We send you to Canada Post's official website, and the tracking information comes from Canada Post.
