What does it mean to arrive in a transit country? Aliexpress order statuses. Arrived in transit country

Statuses in Aliexpress are information about what stage your order or package is at. It is necessary to distinguish between statuses order(waiting for payment, payment verification, order processing) and statuses parcels(the parcel arrived at the sorting point, left customs, export, import). The order status is assigned to the order by the website itself and information about it can be seen in the order information. The status of the parcel is assigned by the post office and customs and is tracked on specialized websites.

We will look at both types of statuses and figure out what they mean.

Aliexpress order statuses

This order is awaiting your payment- Waiting for payment.

This status is assigned to the order immediately after clicking the Place Order button - until payment is made. The time given to the buyer to pay for the order is indicated below in the form of a countdown timer. If the order is not paid within this time, it will automatically close and change to Closed status.

Your payment is being verified– Aliexpress verifies your payment.

Immediately after paying for the order, the payment is sent for verification by the site, and the order status changes to Your payment is being verified. Payment verification usually takes 24 hours, after which it is time for the seller to send the order

– The seller is processing your order

The order status changes to The supplier is processing your order. The time for sending an order is set personally by the seller and is indicated on the product description page. In the order, the time allocated for sending is indicated in the form of a countdown timer. If the order is not shipped within the specified time, Aliexpress will cancel the order. If the seller does not have time to send the order at the specified time, you can extend the processing time by clicking on the " Extend processing time" located under the timer. If for some reason you change your mind about placing an order, click " Request order cancellation" located there. You can read more detailed information about canceling an order in our article “How to cancel an order on Aliexpress”.

The seller has shipped your order - the seller has sent your order.

The order receives this status after sending the order and entering the track number into the system to track it. A new countdown timer appears in the order, indicating how much time is left until the end of the Buyer Protection program on Aliexpress. Button Request to extend Purchase Protection allows you to extend the duration of the Program if, after 40 days, the order has not been delivered. Button Open Dispute allows you to open a dispute (dispute) if the arrived product turns out to be of inadequate quality or does not arrive at all

Malaysia Post is an economical delivery option provided by the official government operator of Malaysia Post (Malaysia Post). By the name you can understand that shipments are assigned untraceable track numbers or with a minimum of information (registration of a small package and export). We help track parcels sent by this service, collect and structure information automatically from all sources, including those inaccessible to the average user.

Cheap goods that the seller offers with free shipping are sent this way. This is beneficial for him; it will allow him to save money and earn money. As a result, the reliability of the service suffers: the item takes a long time to arrive and there is no complete information about its location. Terms vary from 20 to 60 days. The advantage of this method is that there are virtually no restrictions on the goods being sent. What cannot be sent by more common and faster transport companies is acceptable here.

Small packages delivered by Malaysia Post's economical route often land directly in your mailbox without being notified. Monitor the terms of buyer protection on the sites where you placed your order, so that if something happens, at least get your money back.

What is GMTC Arrived in transit country?

This means that your parcel is being delivered in transit through another country, and the parcel has arrived at the sorting center of that country. Next, the shipment will be loaded onto a plane and sent to your country.

The Parcels app will help you track the status and location of your parcel delivered by Malaysia Post.

The package has been added to the site
This means that the parcel does not yet have any status either from the post office of the sending country or from the post office of the recipient country.

Information about the parcel was received electronically
The seller assigned a tracking number to the parcel and registered it on the post office website. But I haven’t delivered the parcel to the post office yet.
It may take from 2 to 14 days before it begins to be tracked.

Received by mail
The parcel arrived at the post office, i.e. the seller brought it to the post office, where it was registered and sent to the recipient.

Transferred to customs
The postal item was handed over to the customs service of the sending state for inspection and other customs procedures. If the parcel passes the customs check successfully, it will be sent to the destination country.

Customs clearance completed, released by customs
If the parcel passes the customs check successfully, it will be sent to the destination country.

Left mail (Export)
Operation “Export” means that the shipment has been transferred to the carrier. The delivery time from export to import is usually the longest and it can take quite a long time before the postal item reaches the territory of the recipient country.
Reasons: transit routes of flights, gaining a certain weight for sending by cargo planes. For example, China and Singapore transport mail using cargo planes that can weigh between 50 and 100 tons. While the shipment is being exported, neither the sending country nor the recipient country can track the shipment online.
Delivery times for international shipments between export and import are not established (not regulated by documents). The delivery route is determined by the country of origin of the shipment, depending on existing agreements with air carriers and the availability of carrying capacity. During delivery, transit flights are used, which leads to an increase in transportation times and the time between export and import operations.

Import
The parcel is registered in the country of destination. A period of 30 days between export and import is normal.

Transferred to customs
The status means that the shipment has been transferred to the Federal Customs Service (FCS) for clearance. At MMPO, shipments undergo a full cycle of processing, customs control and clearance functions. Postal containers arrive under the customs transit procedure. They are then sorted by type and transferred to various areas. Shipments with product contents undergo X-ray inspection. By decision of the customs officer, the postal item may be opened for personal control; the reason for personal control may be violations of property rights, a commercial consignment, targeting a consignment that may contain substances prohibited for shipment. The postal item is opened by the operator in the presence of a customs officer, after which a customs inspection report is drawn up and attached to the item.

Detained by customs
This operation means that the postal item is detained by FCS employees to carry out measures to determine the purpose of the postal item. When receiving goods by international mail during a calendar month, the customs value of which exceeds 1000 euros, and (or) the total weight of which exceeds 31 kilograms, in part of such excess, it is necessary to pay customs duties and taxes using a flat rate of 30% of the customs value of the goods , but not less than 4 euros per 1 kilogram of their weight. If information about the goods sent to the MPO is missing or does not correspond to the actual information, this significantly increases the time spent on processing shipments, since there is a need to conduct a customs inspection and document its results.

Customs clearance completed
This operation means that customs checked the shipment and returned it to Russian Post. In many MMPOs, customs works around the clock: this is the only way to check the colossal volume of mail incoming from abroad in a timely manner. Each customs officer is assisted by two postal operators.

Left MMPO (place of international postal exchange)
The shipment has left the place of international postal exchange and is then sent to the sorting center. From the moment the shipment leaves the MMPO, delivery times for shipments within Russia begin to apply; they depend on the type of shipment http://www.russianpost.ru/rp/servise/ru/home/postuslug/termsdelivery

Arrived at the sorting center / Left the sorting center
After leaving the MMPO, items travel through large postal sorting centers through the territory of the recipient country to their destination. At the sorting center, mail is distributed along the main routes of the country. The parcels are resealed in containers and sent to the delivery location, to the awaiting recipient.

Arrived at the delivery location
The shipment has arrived at the recipient's post office. As soon as the item arrives at the department, employees issue a notice (notification) that the item is in the department. The notice is given to the postman for delivery. Delivery is carried out on the day the item arrives at the department or the next day (for example, if the item arrived at the department in the evening).

Dosyl. Submission.

11 Today it seems that people practically do not shop in brick-and-mortar stores. After all, it is much cheaper to remove “outbid” from the “manufacturer-buyer” chain and save almost half the cost of the product. Yes, our resellers raise the price tag, almost doubling it, causing anger and irritation among ordinary people. Therefore, we have no choice but to go to online stores, or rather to Chinese supermarkets. In order for the product to be tracked, a special track number is used, which allows you to receive information about what is currently happening with your purchase. True, they have some “tricky” statuses that not everyone can decipher them correctly. On our website, we decided to explain the meanings of the most common of them. Bookmark us if you haven't already. Today we will talk about such status as Arrived at destination country, which means you can read a little lower.
However, before I continue, I would like to show you a couple more news on random topics. For example, what does Morok mean, how to understand the expression At the dawn, what is a Swedish family, what does Uber mean, etc.
So let's continue What does Arrived at the destination country mean??

Arrived at destination country- means that your parcel has been delivered to the place of international postal exchange in your country for subsequent export / import operations


Many buyers are very worried that their status does not change for several days, i.e., as it was " Arrived at destination country", it has remained the same for a week now. If you bought a USB cable for a dollar, then this is not particularly annoying, but if a video card costs 800 dollars, then goosebumps are already walking through your body, and your hair is starting to stand on end.

What's really going on? A cargo plane delivered bags of parcels and parcels from China or another intermediate country, and now they are waiting in the wings somewhere in the bowels of the Russian Post, awaiting import. You've probably noticed that some time passes between export and import, starting from a few days and ending with weeks or even months (oh, that Russian post office). Do you really think that the plane has been in the air all this time? In fact, your product is either in the country where you bought it, or where the plane arrived, or maybe both, for a couple of weeks in a row.
The fact is that not all postal services show airline statuses. This is done so that they are not subject to claims for delays in parcels. That is why your parcel has already been in the Russian Federation for three weeks, and import there hasn't been one yet.

From here we conclude that you should not tear your hair in one place, just sit and wait. For example, I order often, and there were practically no losses. The most expensive purchase is a video card for 50,000 rubles, which I ordered in Germany. I also bought a lot of tools, also quite expensive, they all arrived, but I really had to be nervous, it took a long time statuses haven't changed. The longest order, these are special spikes, walking on ice, bought last year on 11/11, and arrived in March of this year. In short, don't worry, the likelihood that your package will be lost is minimal. You just have to wait patiently.
I wish you that all the ordered items arrive to you safe and sound!

After reading this article, you learned What does Arrived at the destination country mean?, and now you can imagine “what it costs” in this mail system. We'll talk about other statuses next time if I'm not lazy.

After you place an order on Aliexpress, the seller packs it and transfers it to the post office or courier company. And the following message will appear in the tracking status of the track number:Collection or Accept.This means that the post office has accepted your parcel. Moreover, the first entry in the tracking system will be available no earlier than 6-10 days, since postal employees need time to register it and enter data into the database.

Then the parcel will be sent to intermediate points, which the status will tell us Opening (Arrived at transit point). Some parcels go through several intermediate points. This is normal and there is no need to be alarmed. For transit points, there may be tracking records of when they arrived there and when they left. The parcel may “hang” at transit points for up to 10-14 days, awaiting further shipment.

Arrived at Sort Facility – The parcel has arrived at the sorting point.

NULL- The parcel passes through intermediate points in China.

After the parcel has passed all intermediate points, it may have a status Dispatching. At this stage, the parcel has arrived at MMPO, where the shipment is processed and prepared for export. The timing depends on the workload of customs. But the standard time is approximately 3-10 days. Not less.

If the goods have successfully passed all customs procedures, then we see a status that pleases us Departure from outward office of exchange (Export). This means that the parcel has been sent to the destination country. And at least 10 days will pass before information appears in the database that the parcel has arrived in the destination country. As soon as you see this status, then after 5 days you can start tracking the parcel on the post office website of the recipient’s country.

As soon as the parcel arrives in the destination country, you will see the status Import ( Arrival at inward office of exchange). Average time between export and import: 2-3 weeks. If the terms are longer, this means that your parcel is just lying there and waiting for its turn.

After import, the goods are sent to customs, which we learn about from the statuses Reception at customs, Customs clearance ( Held by Customs). As soon as the parcel passes all the necessary procedures, it will have a status Release or Customs clearance processing complete . And then the tracking status Left MMPO ( Departure from inward office of exchange) .

Once it arrives at the desired post office, you will see the status Came to the place of delivery. This means that you need to take your passport with you and pick up your package at the post office.

And the last entry, which may be- Delivered to the addressee. This means that the parcel has been received.
