Post from abroad

Post by inchy » Fri Nov 09, 2018 7:35 pm

Cousin send me box package from Germany by post before 9 days and still i did not received it here in Finland.
I dont have any koodi so i am not able to track it because in post office in Germany she did not get anything. She just payed postage.
What can it be wrong?
Can it be founded by my name if i go to post office here in Finland?

have a bit of patience. if there was no tracking number it's not booked on an express service. after two more weeks then you should worry.

Without a tracking code there's not much you can do, as the possible issue can be anywhere between Germany and Finland (who would search for what and where?). In my own experience, even with a tracking code the tracking of packages is not 100% reliable when crossing borders (changing hands between national postal systems). Once there even was an error in the tracking code itself(!), I received the goods but the tracking code - in their systems - might still be there, based on which there's a package supposedly coming to me in The Netherlands. If it's any consolation, currently a few extra days here or there is more a norm than an exception with Finnish Posti.

Once I sent my husband some paperworks from my home country (in Asia region) by local post service, paid them 20 euro, my husband got it within 2 weeks. But we could track it down though. It may take a while. Sometimes It's stuck at customs or posti. You might need to check "lists of things" that can be accepted by Finnish customs to enter Finland. But If It's from the same EU country, It shouldn't matter that much I guess.
