Aramex Tracking Numbers
What is an Aramex Tracking Number?
An Aramex tracking number (also called an Air Waybill number or AWB number) is the unique identifier that links a physical shipment to its electronic record in the Aramex logistics platform. Aramex is a global logistics and transportation company headquartered in Dubai, UAE, with operations in more than 65 countries across the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. The tracking number enables real-time monitoring of a parcel from the moment it is picked up through each hub transit until final delivery.
Where to Find Aramex Tracking Numbers
Aramex tracking numbers are provided by the sender when a shipment is created. You will find it in the shipping confirmation email sent by the retailer or business, printed on the adhesive shipping label on your parcel, and inside your Aramex account dashboard if you ship through aramex.com. For Shop & Ship customers — Aramex's international parcel forwarding service — the tracking number is displayed in the Shop & Ship member portal against each incoming or outgoing parcel.
Aramex Tracking Number Formats
Aramex tracking numbers are predominantly numeric and typically range from 10 to 15 digits in length. A typical domestic or regional AWB might look like 31234567891. Some international shipments or Shop & Ship parcels may incorporate alphabetic prefixes or suffixes related to the origin or destination region. Aramex also uses a Shop & Ship locker number (an alphanumeric forwarding address code) which is separate from, but linked to, the shipment's AWB. You can track using the AWB number or the Shop & Ship reference at aramex.com/track.
