Tracking coverage
The availability of our Tracking and Signature services depends on where your item is going.
See our list of destinations and their services
Where applicable, you’ll be able to track your item via our Track your item service.
Signature on delivery
A signature is taken on delivery for items sent using International Tracked & Signed and International Signed. However, we do not provide a copy of the signature to you as part of the service and it is not available to view online.
Please note formal identification may be captured in lieu of signature
PO Boxes
We recommend that our signature services (International Signed & International Tracked & Signed) are not sent to PO Boxes as treatment of this mail varies from country to country where there is no one to sign for the item. This excludes destinations in Africa or the Middle East, where PO Boxes are routinely manned to accept mail and provide signature.
Telephone numbers
For all of our tracking and signature services we recommend the addressee's mobile telephone number is included on the item to assist in delivery.
