Swiss post delivery tracking

Swiss Post tracking numbers

What is the Swiss Post tracking number?

Swiss Post tracking numbers are alphanumeric codes that allow customers to track their parcels within Switzerland and internationally. The tracking number can be used to get up-to-date information about the shipment's location, expected delivery date, and any potential delays. Swiss Post provides detailed tracking data to ensure customers are always informed about their package’s journey.

Where to find Swiss Post tracking numbers

Swiss Post assigns tracking numbers once a package has been dispatched.

  • The tracking number will be included in the shipping confirmation email you receive. You can also find it by logging into your Swiss Post account (if you have one) and viewing the shipment details.

  • If the tracking number is not provided, visit the Swiss Post website where you can enter the shipment reference number or your customer details to locate your package.

  • In case you still can’t find the tracking number, you can contact Swiss Post's customer support team. Provide them with the relevant details, and they will help you retrieve the tracking information.

Swiss Post tracking number formats

The tracking number format for Swiss Post typically consists of two parts: a unique identifier and a country code at the end. For example, in the tracking number LS416846457CH, the format can be broken down as follows:

  • LS: The first two letters (LS) are part of the international standard for Swiss Post parcels. This prefix is used to indicate a registered item.

  • 416846457: This is the unique serial number assigned to the specific package. It is a combination of numbers that allows Swiss Post to identify and track the item through its journey.

  • CH: The two-letter country code CH stands for Switzerland, which is the country of origin for this shipment.
