The most convenient and reliable Italian Post postal package tracking is on the Postal Ninja website. The progress of your shipments will be updated automatically as soon as you add them to your personal list.
Poste Italiane is Italy's national postal service, responsible for delivering international postal shipments and internal correspondence to individuals and legal entities. It also provides an urgent postal service and carries out EMS shipments. EMS shipping rates with Italian Post are higher, but allow for speedy delivery.
The international postal regulations strictly prohibit the shipment of narcotics, psychotropic or explosive substances and materials, inflammable substances, or any other kind of danger. All shipping rules, including those that restrict dimensions, weight, and postal packaging, can be found on the Italian Post's website.
Types of Italian Post tracking numbers
Poste Italiane assigns a tracking number to all EMS shipments and packages. Small packages may not have tracking and be sent without it.
Italian Post's tracking number format looks like this:
For small packages weighing up to 2 kg: Rx123456785IT;
For shipments weighing between 2 and 20 kg: Cx123456785IT;
For EMS shipments: Ex123456785IT.
According to the international format of the Universal Postal Union, the structure of the tracking number has a specific meaning for each letter and digit:
First letter R/C/E: indicates the type of shipment. A Italian Post tracking number that starts with the letter R (Registered) designates registered small packages;
123456785: this numerical sequence provides a uniqueness;
IT: refers to the country of the originating postal service.
Tracking of Italian Post postal packages
The Italian Post 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 Italian Post 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.
