Iceland Post is a company responsible for international postal exchange and handling of postal shipments in Iceland. Iceland Post is also a member of the global EMS cooperative and delivers EMS shipments. Postal deliveries and EMS shipments by Pósturinn are carried out in accordance with the general rules of the Universal Postal Union, which guarantees the free transit of packages by land, sea, or air among members of the united postal territory.
There are two types of general prohibitions and restrictions that are typical of all postal services: weight/measurement and content. All necessary information can be found on the official Pósturinn website. The permitted types and possible restrictions for the shipment of goods also depend on the country of destination.
Which tracking numbers does Iceland Post use?
Postal shipments are grouped into two categories, and the main classification criterion is weight: small parcels are up to 2 kg; shipments are over 2 kg. Small parcels up to 2 kg may not be traceable, but Iceland Post always registers EMS shipments and express deliveries and assigns them a tracking number.
The international postal identifier consists of an alphanumeric sequence:
RT123456785IS: small package from Iceland;
CA123456785IS: shipment from Iceland;
EE123456785IS: express shipment from Iceland.
The first letter R indicates that it is a registered small parcel; for shipments, the letter will be C; EMS mail begins with the letter E. The digits ensure that the number is unique. The last letters determine the country of the postal service from which the package was sent.
Tracking of Pósturinn postal packages
The Pósturinn tracking number allows you to find a shipment and its transit status. Information is generated for each stage of the shipment in a unified tracking system.
The sender can obtain the tracking number for a Pósturinn shipment by registering it at the post office. You can also register a shipment remotely. Remember, however, that electronic registration does not guarantee that the sender has actually sent the item. In the former case, the physical delivery of the item is immediate, so the tracking information is very quickly added into the tracking system and the recipient can immediately verify the start of the international postal shipment.
