Indeed, the number of postal services and logistics companies in China is growing non-stop, in lately began to appear more and more often combined methods delivery. It is simply impossible for the average buyer to keep track of all this, so universal methods, suitable for everyone.

In this material, we will look at how Singapore Post tracks parcels from China. The delivery method is by no means new, if not to say otherwise, because delivery in transit through Singapore appeared on Aliexpress back in the days when there was little choice but to do so.

A lot of time has passed since then, and therefore changes that no one could have thought of before, but Singapore Post delivery has remained, and has not lost any of its popularity.

Benefits of Singapore Post

Now among the methods mainly free shipping, most often they offer such options as China Air Mail, Singapore Post and, but recently more exotic methods have begun to appear, especially after.

One of these methods may surprise you at first glance - it would seem, where is China and where is Finland, different sides light, but this is due to the fact that the sorting shops of the Finnish Post are less busy, and the country itself is geographically conveniently located for fast delivery parcels throughout Europe and the European part of Russia.

Of course, if you live in the east, then this method is less acceptable for you, so be careful when choosing a delivery method. The long-known China Air Mail and Sing Post do a good job of delivering to the eastern part of Russia.

Please note that parcels sent via Singapore Post can be either registered (with tracking) or unregistered (without tracking).

For all registered Singapore Post items, a unique 13-character tracking number is provided, which is used to track postal items from Singapore.

The tracking number for registered shipments usually looks like RX578842371SG, where the X refers to the number itself and in combination with the first digits indicates the location of the local post office, the subsequent digits are also unique for each parcel. And lastly, the letter code SG, as you probably already guessed, indicates the country of departure.

Parcel tracking from Singapore is available on their. The site is in English, unlike China's national postal service, so there shouldn't be any problems. The Singapore Post track code tracking form is conveniently located on the right side of the main page, called “Track Items”.

After you have copied the track number from, paste it into the search field and click “Check Item Status”, at the next stage you may need to enter a captcha (CAPTCHA) so that the system can distinguish you from bots, enter and click “OK”.

In response, you will most likely receive one of the following statuses:

INFORMATION RECEIVED (This is not an acknowledgment of the physical receipt of the stated Registered Article) - This means that the seller transmitted data about your parcel and received a unique track number for it.

Despatched to Overseas (Country code: XX) – The parcel has departed to its destination. Pay attention to the country code, so for Russia it will be RU, for Belarus - BY.

At this stage, the ability to track postal items from Singapore through the official website is over; further tracking is best carried out according to the standard scheme that we described when we looked at it.

In a nutshell, after export from Singapore, the status of the track code will no longer be tracked for about 2-3 weeks, after which the status of import to the destination country will appear, and then delivery within the country.

To see and not miss all these stages, it is best to use, which will automatically collect information about the movement from both the sender and the recipient.

As already mentioned, delivery from the seller to the sorting point of Singapore Post is carried out by partner companies. Most often, such delivery is called 4PX Singapore Post OM Pro, but sellers often indicate it as a delivery method on Aliexpress, sending via Singapore Post.

You can find out which partner is transporting your parcel by using the track code.

For the track code, it will look like RF...SG, if you have a track code of this type, you can consider yourself lucky, the time from the moment of sending by the seller to departure from Singapore will take approximately 1-3 days.

If the track number is RQ...SG, then the transportation is handled by the partner Quantium Solutions, located in Hong Kong, the average travel time from the seller until export is 7-15 days, one of the slowest partners.

The golden mean in terms of delivery time to the export department is the company Michaoo, the average travel time is 3-10 days, it has a track code of the form RX...SG.

Of course, adjustments are possible over time, but for now this is how you can determine the contractor on the Chinese side. Lately they have been mainly represented by local logistics company 4PX.
