CTT (Correios de Portugal) and YunExpress are two separate entities, but if you’re asking about a YunExpress package being handled by CTT, this typically means that the shipment is coming to Portugal from China via YunExpress, and CTT (Portugal’s national postal service) is handling the final delivery once the package arrives in Portugal.
Here’s how it works when a YunExpress package is delivered by CTT:
- YunExpress Initial Shipment:
- YunExpress typically handles the international leg of the shipment, which includes moving the package from China (or another origin country) to Portugal.
- The package might be transferred to CTT once it arrives in Portugal for customs clearance and final delivery.
- Tracking the Package:
- Tracking Number: You will receive a YunExpress tracking number, typically starting with “YT” followed by a series of numbers and letters (e.g., YT1234567890123456). This tracking number will be used to track the package across various transit stages.
- YunExpress Tracking: While the package is still in transit, you can track it on the YunExpress tracking page: YunExpress Tracking.
- CTT Tracking: Once the package enters Portugal and is handed over to CTT, you can track it on the CTT tracking page:
- CTT Tracking Page.
- Enter your YunExpress tracking number (sometimes, CTT will provide a local tracking number when they take over the shipment). You may see information related to the package’s arrival, customs processing, and delivery updates.
- Possible Tracking Statuses:
- In Transit: The package might still be in transit from China or at a regional warehouse.
- At Customs: When the package arrives in Portugal, it may go through customs clearance, and it might appear as “At Customs”.
- Out for Delivery: After clearing customs, the package will be transferred to CTT for final delivery, and you may see “Out for delivery” or “Delivered” as status updates.
- What to Do If Tracking Isn’t Updating:
- Wait for Updates: Sometimes, tracking information takes time to update, especially during customs clearance or handover to local courier.
- Contact CTT or YunExpress: If there’s a long delay with no tracking updates, contact CTT or YunExpress to inquire about the status of your package.
- Delivery Time:
- YunExpress to CTT usually takes around 7-30 days, depending on the shipping method and the processing times at customs.
- CTT will handle the last mile delivery once the package is cleared and processed.
Key Points:
- CTT (Correios de Portugal) is responsible for the final delivery within Portugal after YunExpress has handled the international shipping leg.
- You can track the entire shipment using the YunExpress tracking number on either the YunExpress website or the CTT website once the package arrives in Portugal.
- If there are delays or issues with tracking, contacting CTT directly might provide additional details.
