Tracking your FedEx shipments is an easy way to stay updated on your international package's journey. By following a few simple steps, you can check its status and ensure everything is on schedule.
This guide will show you how to track FedEx international packages, including how to get the tracking number, use FedEx’s tracking tools, and explore an alternative with Ship24 for comprehensive tracking across multiple carriers.
Start by getting your FedEx tracking number. This number is essential for accessing your shipment's status. The shipper or seller typically provides this number when the package is sent. Keep it handy for the tracking process.
To track your shipment, go to the FedEx international tracking page. This section of the website allows you to enter your tracking number and see where your package is. You can either navigate directly to the FedEx tracking section or use the link shared by the shipper.
Once you’re on the FedEx tracking page, find the field to input your tracking number. Carefully type in the number provided in Step 1. Be sure there are no errors in the number to get the most accurate tracking updates.
After entering the tracking number, press "Track" or hit "Enter" to begin the tracking process. The FedEx system will then retrieve and display the latest information about your shipment’s journey.
In addition to FedEx’s website, you can also track your shipments using Ship24. Ship24 offers a convenient way to track multiple shipments across different carriers from a single page. To track on Ship24:
The FedEx international tracking number format consists of 12 digits, which are specifically designed to provide accurate and efficient tracking information. This alphanumeric code serves as a key to accessing detailed updates on the package's location, transit checkpoints, and estimated delivery date. By entering the tracking number into the FedEx website or Ship24, customers can stay informed about the status of their international shipments in real time.
Your FedEx international tracking number can usually be found on the shipping label, which is provided when the package is processed. If you’re the recipient, the sender or the eCommerce platform where you made the purchase will often send you the tracking number via email. You can also find it in any shipment confirmation receipts or in your account if you made the purchase through an online store that integrates tracking into its platform.
If your FedEx international tracking number isn’t updating, there could be several reasons. It may take a few hours or even up to 24 hours after the shipping label is generated for tracking information to appear in the system. Moreover, the package might not yet have been scanned by FedEx, particularly if it’s still with the sender or hasn't entered the FedEx system. Other common issues include delays at customs or slow updates when the package is in transit between countries. Contact FedEx customer service if your tracking number has not been updated for several days.
