Have you ever spent time staring at your inbox? Do you still remember waiting for that magical email stating "Your package has been delivered!" Yes, most of us have similar experiences. This is when Canada Post Tracking comes to your rescue, especially when you're sending something important across the border with Xpresspost USA. Let's enter the Canada Post Tracking world, where parcels don't vanish into thin air, and you can stop speculating and start knowing.

What is the Canada Post Tracking System?

Imagine Canada Post Tracking as your own detective. With every shipment or delivery of a package, this nifty tool provides you with the current status of your parcel. Be it hanging out in a sorting centre or speeding along in customs, it's a breeze. Grab the tracking number of your receipt, shipping label, or confirmation email you were about to delete, input it on the Canada Post website or app, and voila! You'll know where your package is and when you can expect it to arrive on your doorstep. And yes, it works just as well whether you're shipping a care package across the country or important documents to the U.S. with Xpresspost USA.

How to Track Your Canada Post Package 

  • Track down your tracking number (on your receipt, email, or shipping label).
  • Go to the tracking window below.
  • Enter the number and hit "Track Your Package"
  • Sit back and watch your package's journey unfold.

Here's an example of what a standard tracking number would be:

  • 16 digits (such as 7035 1144 7713 8472)
  • Or 13 letter and numeric characters (such as RY982465507CN)
  • No number? No tracking. So protect that teeny code as if it's the password for your Wi-Fi.

Lost Your Canada Post Tracking Number? Here's What to Do

All right, guilty time: We've all thrown away a receipt or hit the delete button a little too fast.So what do you do if your Canada Post Tracking number disappears? Sadly, Canada Post can't simply look it up with your address or name (privacy regulations and all that stuff). The sender is the only way to get your tracking information back. If you're expecting a package, call the shipper. If you're shipping something, look at your shipping label or receipt.

What about Delivery Notice Cards and Reference Numbers?

Occasionally, if you're not present when Canada Post drops by, they'll leave a delivery notice card. Surprise! That card also has a number on it. Plug the 15-digit delivery notice card number into the tracking tool, and you'll know when and where to collect your parcel. If a shipper has provided you with a reference number rather than a tracking number? That's fine, too. Canada Post accepts those in their online tracker. Just add a date range to help limit things and prevent duplicate results.

Canada Post Tracking Functions Outside of Canada

Canada Post Tracking not only monitors parcels in Canada. It tracks U.S. and international shipments, as well. Whether you are expecting a package from New York or New Delhi, you can track its movement step by step.

When shipping to the U.S. via Xpresspost USA, Canada Post collaborates hand-in-hand with USPS. So, as soon as your package enters the country, it's treated as domestic Priority Mail, with delivery scans and signatures if needed.
